Blended families are often a headache. The children of newly formed couples must learn to know each other and get along, often with friction on the agenda. A subject that Dany Boon and Laurence Arné know well, as a couple since 2018, who between them have six children, including four sons and a daughter for the actor Ch’ti and a boy for the filmmaker.
Moreover, this situation inspired them The Hennedricks Family, the family comedy in theaters from June 26. However, for their part, no strong disagreement to deplore, the couple even experienced the opposite.
Raphaël, son of Laurence Arné with Jérôme Duchamps, and Sarah, daughter of Dany Boon with Yaël Harris, aged 12 and 14 respectively, fell in love when their parents started living together. An unexpected situation which is not easy to manage, as the two actors confided on the set of What an era! Saturday June 15.
“Happy shit”
“We were lucky, it went pretty well. We, our two youngest, fell in love for two years, there was a romance…” revealed Laurence Arné. “It was even more complicated. We were super nervous. »
It’s easy to imagine the difficulties of a romantic breakup happening under the same roof. To the great relief of the star couple, their children’s romance “ended, fortunately they are no longer in love”.
“It was harder for my son than for his daughter”
“I managed the separation because it was harder for my son than for his daughter…” explains the actress. And while Léa Salamé tries to find out if “he got dumped”, the actress and director concedes: “Yes but he put on a good show”.

She then spoke of the “happy mess” when the six children found themselves at home. “Sometimes we lose some and we say to ourselves, ‘Oh damn, I didn’t see that you weren’t there anymore’,” Dany Boon joked. “There are moments when we find them all and they are the happiest and most extraordinary moments, they are the most beautiful memories,” he concludes nicely.
