If Audrey Fleurot, at 47, is a recognized actress today, who is preparing to close the successful television chapter that she opened with HPI seriesshe owes her vocation to a man, and not just any one: his father. Audrey, however, is not a child of the ball: her mother was a childcare worker and her father was a firefighter. But the latter did not practice just anywhere. He worked at the French comedy!
The actress, who recently appeared sublime on the arm of her man, returned to her youth on the set of What an era! on France 2 this December 21, 2024: “My father was a Paris firefighter at the time when there were firefighters on duty (…) at the Comédie Française. He was regularly on call and I think one evening my mother said to him, 'take the kid'.”she confided, revealing the love at first sight she felt for this profession. “At the same time, I see the spectacle in the room and at the same time behind the scenes (…) And I say to myself, this is what I want to do”.
Léa Salamé taken aback after the revelation of Audrey Fleurot
If on Léa Salamé's set, these words had a very particular content, it is because this man to whom she owes so much, her father, is no longer today. Information captured in a sentence from his guest: “I've told this story a lot and then I just lost my father so it will make him even more happy.” Taken aback by the new Léa Salamé, she was only able to stammer out one : “I’m sorry, I didn’t think so.”
Audrey Fleurot, mother of little Lou and who will not have any other children, particularly underlined the privilege she had benefited from knowing so young what she wanted to do in life. “It was that or nothing else and I really think it's lucky. When you have this conviction and that it is vital, you put everything in place to achieve it. At eight years old, I know what I am going to do and I put everything in place to…” And in particular studies since Audrey quickly moved towards an artistic baccalaureatetheater option, before doing studies of plastic arts and art sciences and to join the prestigious National School of Theater Arts and Techniques, formerly colloquially called “Drama Center”, or simply “Rue Blanche”.
After a difficult start, She who initially wanted to do mainly theater, quickly found herself known on television, notably via A camelseries in which she takes her first steps before continuing with another series which will completely reveal her, Gearswhere her character as a lawyer ready for anything, will completely convince. So many unforgettable moments that she owes to the one whose disappearance she mourns today.
