Before that, the singer had a relationship with her producer Marc-André Chicoine, during which her son Marcus was born. Now aged 15, the teenager lives in Canada. “He has his challenges, he's a hypersensitive being, and he has to deal with that thing“, the musician notably revealed about her son during an interview with the site Chatelaine.com . It was precisely during this same interview that Isabelle Boulay revealed why her son bore his father's last name instead of his own.
“I wanted him to have his father's name, so he could sneak around however he wanted. When his friends in the schoolyard found out who I was, he received comments like: 'She must be rich, your mother.' And that bothered him a lot. I don't have a jet-set life“, she explained.
