It is one of the most anticipated French films of the year and after its very good reception at the Cannes Film Festival, spectators’ impatience has only increased. It must be said that for his new feature film, Gilles Lellouche has brought together a 5-star cast with all the headliners of French cinema at the moment, starting with Raphaël Quenard and Vincent Lacoste. In this romantic drama which follows the love story between two teenagers in the North of France, the director chose to trust Adèle Exarchopoulos and François Civil to play their adult versions.
This Wednesday, October 9, the 30-year-old actress gave an interview to Marie Claire to discuss the release of the film and his vision of love, especially when you are a public figure. The one who was pregnant at 22 by a singer in a particular context admits that it is sometimes complicated and that you have to make a choice. “There are famous people who prefer to control what comes out about them by posting photos on social networks, for example: it’s intelligent, it can be a very good strategy but it wouldn’t occur to me to stage my couple”explains Adèle Exarchopoulos, before continuing: “At home, there is no calculation. I have difficulty changing my habits, so I am not going to start going to this or that restaurant to avoid being seen with someone…”
Adèle Exarchopoulos talks about her “couple” with François Civil
For several months now, rumors have been growing about the possibility that Leïla Bekhti’s great friend is in a relationship with her on-screen partner, François Civil. After the duo displayed their complicity in broad daylight at the Cannes Film Festival last May, the Parisian returned to the subject, without denying it. “It’s a rumor that was started by magazines that I don’t necessarily read. I came to a stage where I cope very well with it because I no longer pay attention to it, says Adèle Exarchopoulos. If you have a little sense of humor, it becomes funny very quickly. On the other hand, I will never expose my son. I know what is dear to me and what I will not bear comments on.”
A necessary clarification from the actress, who does not deny the rumor, but wishes to stay away from all that. Mother of a little boy born in 2017 from her relationship with the rapper Doums, she was also in a relationship with the actor Jérémie Laheurte, met on the set of The Life of Adèle.
