Guest on the show In the retro by Déborah Grunwald on France Bleu, she returned to this complicated ordeal.
Sylvie Tellier opens up about her divorce which was not easy to deal with
In 2012, Sylvie Tellier and her companion Camille Le Maux made the decision to separate. However, they had a little boy together named Oscar, aged two at the time. “It’s super difficult too […] It took me back to my mother’s own story. It was a horrible time. Plus, I got divorced the year Geneviève de Fontenay left Miss France, I had lost ten kilos, it was terrible because there was a lot of guilt telling myself: ‘I gave birth to a child who will never know a mom and dad holding his hand in the park.’ I shed buckets of tears and even today I still have guilt about it, it’s not easy“, she declares. To overcome this ordeal, Sylvie Tellier admits that she “gritted my teeth a lot.” “I tried to hold on to something by saying to myself: ‘But you will give him something else, you will love him for two’. Well yes but no, I know, I am the daughter of divorced parents, I was not raised by a father and I know how much that is missing in life“, she adds.

Sylvie Tellier talks about her parents’ divorce
If the mother suffered so much from this divorce, it is because it reminded her of her parents who argued a lot when she was young. This divorce helped him develop “an anger, a hatred“in support of his mother.”We say to ourselves that it’s not fair. […] Mom did not have the strength to preserve the image of the father in front of us. So, as we were really into what was happening, we took sides. Me, I took sides excessively and I was in defense of mom“, confides Sylvie Tellier who is still very close to her mother, who accompanied her in all the important moments of her life.
