They loved each other, had a child, got married and then divorced. In the columns of “Paris Match”, Dimitri Rassam spoke as rarely about his separation from Charlotte Casiraghi and the links he maintains with the latter’s eldest son, Raphaël Elmaleh.
He is the producer of “The Count of Monte Cristo”, the second biggest French success of the year, and the son of a cinema legend in the person of Carole Bouquet. Dimitri Rassam spoke to “Paris Match” to talk about his career and also agreed to lift the veil on his private life, recently marked by his divorce from Charlotte Casiraghi, daughter of Princess Caroline of Monaco.
“I lost control,” explains the producer before recalling, however, that “we cannot speak of failure when we have had a strong love story and have wonderful children. But we are altered by what we experience, and questioning is virtuous. » With Charlotte Casiraghi, Dimitri Rassam welcomed little Balthazar in 2018, and is also the father of Darya, born in 2011 from his union with Masha Novoselova.

According to those close to him, the divorce would have had a major impact on Jean-Pierre Rassam’s son, who has since reviewed his relationship with relationships. “Fairy tales do not exist in reality, but we must continue to believe in great love stories. In a marriage, we know that there will be trials, but when we are young, we are not fully aware of them. With age we change our outlook on love. I don’t believe in total and permanent fusion in a couple,” he believes.
However, Dimitri Rassam has no regrets, affirming that “I can question my behavior but there is not much I would do differently in terms of romantic choices. In a relationship it is necessary to manage to preserve what is beautiful, whatever happens. », therefore suggesting that his finished love story will still have left him with tender memories.
