It was easier for Valérie Lemercier to cover up her relationships than for Celine Dion. The director slipped into the skin of the Quebec diva for a film entitled Aline, released on Wednesday November 3, 2021, for which she gave an interview to Gala. In an interview conducted by Catherine Ceylac (ex Tea or coffee), the filmmaker modestly evokes the new man in her life.
With such a busy job, Valérie Lemercier begins by admitting that she is looking for “the difference“at the other.”It’s complicated for the other to wonder if he should or shouldn’t be in the photo (…) I’ve never dated an actor. A man who could be too seductive does not seduce me “, explains the director, put off by an oversized ego as much as a man who would like to control his career too much.
“Balancing is sharing a little more than usual. I spent a lot of time never saying what I was doing. Never talking about my job in private because it could hurt or annoy. Not to say that I was going to take pictures or play this or that“Deplores Valérie Lemercier. Questioned insistently by our colleagues, the 57-year-old actress ends up talking about her relationship with her new companion.”So far even I don’t know him much“, she admits.
Valérie Lemercier even speaks of the possibility for her to get married, because she does not have it “never done” and “that it is time to take a break“. ‘No, but marriage is beautiful. For Céline, it was essential to get married and I understand her. It is very importantt “, she believes. Even if the project remains fictitious, the actress already has an idea of her ideal dress:”I would try not to be too bulky. It would be simple, I’m not going to put on a dress for a girl who has never seen a wolf. It would be a rather long dress, already worn. I would like that under the white, there is green.“
For now, the idea of marriage has not been mentioned in their relationship. “It’s in my head. I’m romantic, that’s it. I say to myself why not one day (…) Please, do not title on that. I’m a little old-fashioned, I’d rather be asked. “
