I was working with the person I was living next to

They are the fruit of her relationship with the actor and director Benjamin Bellecour with which she married on February 13, 2016. “Motherhood has changed my outlook on life, my relationship to work and family. I understand and respect women who do not want to have children, but my life without children would have been in my opinion… useless”had declared the singer in an interview with the women’s diary in July 2020. For his part, Patrick Fiori has been married since June 2008 to the lyricist Ariane Quatrefages with whom he had two sons born in 2009 and 2014.
