The actress Sophie Bourgeois, known in particular for her role as Martine Lindsay in The Escapeloves renovating to the point where she gets bored when she doesn’t have projects to complete.

It’s quite a challenge that we discover in his series My abandoned housewhich follows her in her project of renovating an old “shack” in the Laurentians.

In this eight half-hour docu-reality available now on Vrai, we discover the bubbly personality of Sophie, who becomes excited at the simple sight of a mechanical excavator. She is funny, cheerful and full of energy.

Her ex-spouse and father of her children, the actor Frédéric Pierre – Renaud Magloire in the series Alerts –, describes Sophie as “intensely passionate”, which is why he is “worried” when she embarks on such projects.

“I’m afraid,” admits to the camera the one who has a tight budget, but who, on the other hand, is not shy and shows a lot of initiative in this era of interest rates and high costs. She also does all the work that she is capable of accomplishing herself, such as laying rock wool.

We also see her moved and sometimes discouraged throughout the different stages and unforeseen events of any reno-construction project, so much so that we can speak of a meeting tinged with emotion and surpassing oneself.

Even his friend Réal Béland comes to lend him a hand.

Sophie Bourgeois, who has owned apartment buildings, who renovated a few chalets and who rolled up her sleeves to take part in the construction of her previous residence.
