“It was my mother who decided to leave“: Emmanuel Moire talks about his parents’ divorce in A Sunday in the countryside
A painful memory which remains engraved in the memory of the one who plays the role of François in Tomorrow belongs to us on the competing channel, TF1. “My father explains to us that my mother has decided to leave home. Being an ultrasensitive child with a lot of empathy, my father’s pain (was) difficult to live with… It was my mother who decided to leave“, he began by explaining, considering that his family had been functioning until then despite everything, “although it was a little wobbly“. And to Sandrine Bonnaire who asked him if this ordeal had allowed him to get closer to his twin brother, who died in 2009 after a car accident, Emmanuel Moire replied in the negative: “Not there yet, because my brother had less tools to understand that. I who didn’t have my place, I think it was even more difficult for my brother. Living was difficult for my brother…“. Following the divorce, the actor lived with his father, a professional photographer and antique dealer, and with his brother.
Emmanuel Moire”father of the family” in spite of himself: here is the sentence that made a click for him
Despite his status as a teenager, he indicates that he took on many responsibilities despite himself, which makes him say in hindsight thatrather he had a role of “father of the family“. Fortunately, a discussion with a guidance counselor made something click for him. “Now Emmanuel, we will have to learn to be selfish“, he remembers having heard. And to conclude with Frédéric Lopez by putting himself back in his adolescent skin: “It’s my mother, it’s my father, it’s not my story“.
