He doesn’t just have his career in mind, however brilliant it may be. Marc-Olivier Fogiel also leads an exemplary family life. Married to his long-time companion since December 14, 2013, the host is raising two adorable daughters: Mila, who was born in 2011 and Lily, born two years later, like her sister, using a American surrogate mother. This obstacle course to become a father, he told it in his autobiographical book What’s wrong with my family? published in 2018 by Grasset, and this book was freely adapted into a TV movie broadcast on France 2 on February 9, 2022.
All the trials that led him to fatherhood, Marc-Olivier Fogiel faced them with his husband François Roelants. A former student of Sciences Po Aix-en-Provence and ESCP-EAP, the host’s partner began his career as a press officer with the Motor agency!, one of the largest agencies in press relations in the cinema, then worked in events, managing various launches in the luxury sector. He is also the founder of Be my guest. He lives today from his passion, photography, and released a collection of images in April 2021 entitled Saint-Barths.
