Florent Manaudou is an extraordinary athlete both in terms of its performance and its longevity. Laure Manaudou’s little brother indeed landed on our television screens when he was just a teenager in the shadow of his champion sister. The latter, who was considered the little queen of French swimming, has indeed taken up a lot of space. Enough to allow his younger brother to build himself quietly.
He then managed to make a name for himself. Now aged 34, he retired with several Olympic medals, including gold in London in 2012. He is now enjoying life and his mansion in Marseille in the company of his sweetheart, Lola Dumenil. A romance that shook up the life of the former swimmer. The latter also spoke about their meeting and their story.
Two sports addicts
The two lovers share a common passion. This is often a key to making a story last. Whether it’s Florent Manaudou or Lola Dumenil, they are totally addicted to sports. He no longer has to prove his attraction to the weight room, as his career and his physique speak for him. But we recently discovered that his partner had decided to launch herself as a sports influencer. We can see many videos on her Instagram account where she shares her advice and on which we can admire its incredibly sculpted silhouette.
With nearly 20,000 followers, it is starting to have a fairly large community. Among his admirers is obviously Florent Manaudou. He had also confided in Gala on the role of his girlfriend in his development. “It brings me a lot of serenity (…) It is essential in my sporting projectbut above all it has become indispensable in my life. (…) I went to train in South Africa, where she was continuing her studies”.
Florent Manaudou talks about his desire to have children
The logical continuation of such a story will be, next, to have children. The swimmer who had a high-level career in one of the most demanding sports in the world did not have this in mind during all his years of competition. He indeed explained that it would probably have been a distraction in his quest for medals. But today, while he is being removed from the pools, it is a project that seems to interest him more. He had confided in this sense to Paris Match.
“I saw friends have children during their careers, they were less efficient. But it makes sense if you wake up every night. I always told myself that I would have children at the end of my career. But I saw that it was long and I still did everything I liked. Now I can try to have children if I want to ». A sport in its own right to manage young children.
