Anne Brochet, “not ready at all” to become a grandmother
“The last time I played in the theater was around twenty years ago. And I met the mother of my son Noé there, it’s my fondest theater memory”confided Gad Elmaleh a few years ago. Like her ex-comedian companion, the actress became a grandmother long before she thought. Because their son welcomed a little girl when she was only 57 years old. “When my son, my baby, told me that he was going to be a parent tooI wasn't ready at all.”said Anne Brochet at Gala.
“When my granddaughter was born, I thought of my mother. I thought of her other grandmother. I, in fact, thought of all the women in the family who had given birth, before that she is bornadded Anne Brochet. That's it: I have the feeling of being part of a lineage of women. It is no coincidence that I dedicate L’Armoire de vies to my grandmother Yvonne and my granddaughter Ely. My grandmother was happy, I regret not having enjoyed it more. I think I am, in my turn,
a clown grandmother.” His son will be able to reveal it.
