Xavier de Moulins couldn’t be more serious when it comes to presenting information to viewers on M6. As far as the private sphere is concerned, the 50-year-old journalist is a little more relaxed, even almost unpredictable. In 2009, while enjoying a well-deserved vacation in the United States with Anaïs Bouton, his partner, Xavier de Moulins completely twisted since he married his darling on a whim: “My wife didn’t know. She had just told me when I arrived in Las Vegas: ‘I’m sure of one thing, that I will never marry you!’ We had been around town, we had an hour to kill, and I said to myself: ‘Hey, we’re getting married!’ What is paradoxical is that I am totally against marriage. In life, sometimes you have to let yourself go” he had confided to the magazine TV Major channels. When he lets himself go, Xavier de Moulins does not do things by halves!
Saying “yes” without thinking did not precipitate the downfall of the couple. Quite the contrary! Subsequently, the lovers became parents of two daughters, Tosca and Bianca, whose half-sister Gaïa-Lou was born from the union of Xavier de Moulins with a former companion. Like all couples, the journalist and Anaïs Bouton go through periods of turbulence, the fault of their strong character according to the words of the presenter of M6: “I am human. I reserve this character trait for a few people, including Anaïs Bouton. It can actually go away at any time. I have Slavic origins, she, Mediterranean. It gives one hell of a cocktail! Let’s say it’s very much alive at home.”
These little hiccups of daily life and professional life – they both pass on television – do not impact the private lives of Xavier de Moulins and Anaïs Bouton. Despite the disputes and tensions, the lovers have an unfailing admiration for each other. “My wife is a character. She is extremely bright, cultured and intelligent. She can do anything. She is very amazing” he still confided to TV Major Channels. That doesn’t stop him from beingvery difficult“with his wife:”As a teacher, he is super good, but he can be very hard sometimes. Excellent teacher, but it’s hard.” A character that Xavier de Moulins had explained: “It’s true, but in fact it’s our job as journalists that does that, we can be quite direct, sometimes a little too much.“The express marriage was therefore not so surprising after all.
