In February 2022, Estelle Denis announced her breakup with Raymond Domenech, father of her children Victoire (18 years old) and Merlin (15 years old), explaining that in reality they had separated discreetly two years previously. And the same year, in December, the journalist from RMC Story formalized his relationship with Marc Thiercelin on the red carpet of the film premiere My Heroine.
16 years his senior, Marc Thiercelin is known as a professional navigator and skipper. Nicknamed Captain Marck in the industry, he completed five solo circumnavigations of the world (four Vendée Globes, three of which were completed and one Around Alone). So his head is full of memories. And on November 6, he dove back into it and put his finger on photos of himself dating from his very first Vendée Globe. It was in 1996.
Marc Thiercelin more precisely unearthed a photo of him before his departure and another upon his return, after a few months. “Vendée Globe 1996 souvenir box… Four months around the world in 1996 conditions with a very physical boat, the traces are visible. Before/After“, he commented on his Instagram post. And indeed, if we recognize him clearly in the two images, it is easy to see that the journey proved physically demanding for the 36-year-old navigator at the time , hair longer and much thinner in the second photo.

Twenty-eight years have passed since these photos were taken and Marc Thiercelin is now 64 years old, a birthday he celebrated very recently, on October 29. On Instagram, he already published a photo for the occasion. “Yay it happened 6+4…“he wrote with irony. A post that his lover Estelle Denis did not hesitate to comment on. “Happy birthday“she had wished him using a teddy bear emoji and a heart emoji. New proof that the two still form a united couple.
This is not the first time that Estelle Denis has publicly expressed her love for the browser. On several occasions, she made it known that they liked to take vacations together, sometimes luxurious ones. The perfect way to find each other, those who are in a long-distance relationship.
