The two actors Tahar Rahim and Leïla Bekhti form a discreet couple, who appear almost or very little together. They rarely speak publicly about each other. Their love at first sight took place on the set of the film A Prophetin 2007, which revealed the actor. It’s a story that is still far from over: in the meantime, they got married and gave birth to four children. But it is rare that we see them together on a red carpet. This was the case, however, once, in the film that led to their meeting: A prophet. It was May 16, 2009, when it was screened at the 62nd Cannes Film Festival.
Apart from this family life, the couple continues filming. Tahar Rahim will soon be starring in the film Mr Aznavour signed Grand Corps Malade and Mehdi Idir, whose release is scheduled for October 23. To perfect his performance, which is coming “absolutely stunning” according to Grand Corps Malade, the 43-year-old actor revealed that he even took singing lessons to be able to perform Aznavour’s greatest pieces himself. A role in which we can’t wait to see him.

Tahar Rahim: the unconditional support of his wife Leïla Bekhti
If she did not appear publicly with her husband on the red carpet of Mr AznavourLeïla Bekhti still wanted to show her unconditional support. She accompanied him to Toulouse for the film premiere on August 31 and even posted a photo of him on stage, presenting the film, on Instagram, accompanied by a caption: “They came, they are all here.” A reference to Aznavour’s cult song The Motherreleased in 1963. In May 2024, she also posted a taser of the film on the social network. She therefore seemed to be in the front row to support the project and the father of her children.
