Member of the educational team of a college jostled by the methods of a professor, he once again hits the mark in his role. The 68-year-old actor is, in his private life, a man in heaven with his beloved Anna Novion, soon to be 43 years old.

The lovers have not left each other for more than a decade and are now civil unions. In May 2014, the artists welcomed a baby, their son Vincent.
In the pages of TV Starthe unforgettable Denis d’A family resemblance confided about his collaboration with his sweetheart: “It is very precise, very choreographic. She looks at me with great acuity and perceives all the nuances. And yes, we do not stop!
