In a relationship with Mélanie Doutey from 2002 to 2013, Gilles Lellouche had a daughter named Ava with the actress. Born on September 5, 2009, the young girl celebrated her 15th birthday in 2024 and is therefore in the middle of her teenage years. Not an easy thing to manage for the director of the film Phew Love as he recently confided to journalists from Liberation.
Dad of Jules, born on November 13, 2022 from his love affair with Alizée Guinochet (his partner since 2015), he thus indicated that he was very worried “social networks and risks of harassment“.
Very close to his children, Gilles Lellouche also explained how important his role as dad was to him, he who had lost his father just a few months after the birth of his daughter in 2009.
Gilles Lellouche became a father just before the loss of his own father
Guest on the show The Papotin Meetings, he confided: “I loved my dad very much. On the other hand, not always, but sometimes, life is good (…) I was lucky to have my daughter just before my dad died. She was born six months before my dad went to heaven, and my father being able to see my daughter was a great blessing for me.“.
The actor of Small Handkerchiefs added: “My father was able to see my daughter, which was very lucky for me. […] Maybe my sentence was a little more balanced. […] It’s the balance of life.”
Always very nostalgic when he thinks of his dad, Philippe Lellouche's brother confided that there was no “a day” where he doesn't think of his father. “I think about it very often and I thank you for asking the question because answering it still makes me think of him.” revealed the director of the film The Great Bath.
