Alain Bernard marked French swimming. In the 2000s, the ex-swimmer went on to compete and won countless titles. In 2008, the star of the pools was brilliantly illustrated during the Olympic Games organized in Beijing. However, four years later, he decided to retire to everyone’s surprise. At 38, Alain Bernard hopes to seduce his admirers with his autobiography “My Olympic destiny”. In his book, the athlete lifts the veil on his career and certain aspects of his private life. Without make-up, Alain Bernard also spoke about the crash that occurred during the shooting of “Dropped” in 2015. Unpublished revelations to discover at this point!
Via his book, Alain Bernard also shed light on his hidden love affair with Laure Manaudou. But their romance ended rather badly for the young man in 2006. In the columns of “Var-Morning” this Friday, November 26, 2021, the Olympic medalist made new confidences on this subject. “The idea was to play cards on the table. More than the love affair, it is a context that I wanted to explain ”, he analyzed to our colleagues. “I was starting to gain self-confidence, then Laure threw me like a mess. My ego has been touched ”.
A hard blow for Alain Bernard who struggled to turn the page. To this day, the big blue with blue eyes no longer holds it against him. “I took some hits, but then I bounced back. It even helped me in the end because I was stronger behind ”, he added with philosophy.
At the same time, Alain Bernard has found love again with his wife Faustine. He hopes that his rare confidences in his biography have not hurt his ex. “I never held it against Laure, it was just a love affair lasting a few weeks. I hope that Laure won’t be angry with me either for talking about her private life and that it won’t make waves ”, concluded Alain Bernard wisely.
