While the last season of the “Munch” series has just ended on TF1, actress Isabelle Nanty is making headlines in the media. At 59, she is indeed one of the most popular actresses in the country thanks to her many roles, notably in “Les Tuches”, “Les Profs” or “Asterix and Obelix: Mission Cleopatra “. On a daily basis, however, the actress fights against several disorders because she suffers from dyslexia, dyspraxia (a disorder of motor development that affects the automation of voluntary gestures) and dyscalculia (an impairment of the ability to understand and use Numbers).
“Everything is formatted, everything has to fit in boxes, be like this or like that and when you are dyslexic, dyspraxic, dyscalculic or whatever, the gap becomes even worse than before. I know how this handicap has been a real problem in my life and even in my profession, how I had to cover up, develop strategies to get around problems and find solutions. I understand well the people who suffer from this and it is good that they can know that we can still manage to do things in spite of everything ” had explained the actress in January 2020 in the columns of Télé-Loisirs.
This unexpected gift from Omar Sy
Asked by the magazine Paris Match about her daily life, the actress explained how a gift made by Omar Sy to her adopted daughter Tallulah, almost handicapped her daily life. A few years ago, the actor who is one of her close friends, had indeed made a gift that she would have done well without: One day, Omar Sy gave my daughter a cat. It turns out that babies, crazy people and animals scare me, because you can’t negotiate with them“she explained.
Directly and against all expectations, the actress who initially did not want this gift, got attached to the pet: “This cat, called “Doudou” because of the Canal + after-sales service, scared me for a very long time. And then, one morning, when I left the house, I felt that he was part of my life, that I had a little of his soul in me “. What proves that the four-legged companions quickly become an integral part of the family.
