Dany Brillant has a “real regret”: this other profession that he never managed to achieve
It’s in the columns of Galaand on the occasion of the launch on February 9 in Lille of his new anniversary tour Best of Tourthat Dany Brillant spoke at length about his private life on January 9.

It is true that cinema is an integral part of his life. He even named his two sons after two sacred cinema monsters: Lino Ventura and Dean Martin. “Dean Martin, I think I borrowed a lot of things from him. When I was young, I tried to borrow his relaxation, his style, his hairstyle (…) Lino Ventura, he was a bit like my father substitution, because he embodied a masculine force, we took strength from him.had confided Dany Brillant in Telematin in October 2024.
Dany Brillant, far from his family: “We are making a separate country”
Moreover, the crooner spoke a lot about his blended family in the columns of Gala. The one who has shared his life with Nathalie Moury since 2008 (with whom he had two boys), is in fact also the father of a daughter, Leah, born from a previous union. And their family life is special since Dany Brillant lives in France, while his wife and their two sons live in Brussels, and his daughter, in Canada. “This is the solution that we found with Nathalie, their mother, to always have the pleasure of being together: after having a separate bedroom, separate floor, separate apartment, we make a separate country”confided the principal concerned.
But the artist seems to have recently changed his mind on the subject: “I want to have my family around me again, to be in exchange, sharing. For a long time, I cherished my solitude but now, it weighs on me. I thought that family was a prison, a place of neurosis, whereas it is a strength”.
