Recently guest on the show “Chez Jordan De Luxe”, on C8, the former Chelsea defender took the opportunity to talk about his daughter Jade, now 34 years old. The latter, a widely followed influencer on Instagram (270,000 subscribers), provides various fashion and beauty advice to certain cosmetic brands.
A profession very exposed to criticism which worries his father somewhat. “She does a job that I don’t necessarily appreciate,” says Frank Leboeuf. “She’s an influencer. I tell her that you always have to protect yourself and know what you’re doing. That there are people who need the opinion or advice from my daughter, so much the better if it reassures them. It's a little beyond me because it's not part of my generation.”

And added: “I tell him: 'you do what you want but you know that you have a dad who was famous and that you will always be 'Frank Leboeuf's daughter'. If there are contracts where she's a little naked, it's 'Frank Leboeuf's daughter gets naked'”.
Frank Leboeuf finally explained that, despite his fears, he regularly discusses the subject with his daughter. “We both have frank conversations about the thing. We do a public job and we can't do and say anything. He takes responsibility for everything we say and everything we do.”
Jade Leboeuf has been married since 2018 to Stéphane Rodrigues, a former candidate for Secret Story and Ninja Warrior, with whom she had a boy, Elon James, in 2020.
