A true living legend of the French comedy scene, Jamel Debbouze, guest of 8:30 p.m. Sunday this evening, also made a name for himself on television, thanks to the cult series called H on Canal+, but also in the cinema. On the private side, the actor has been dating journalist Mélissa Theuriau since 2007 which viewers have notably been able to see on M6 in the past. Married in 2008, the two lovebirds have since given birth to two children. Their eldest son, named Léon Ali Debbouze, was born on December 3, 2008. For her part, their youngest daughter, named Lila Fatima Brigitte Debbouze, was born on September 28, 2011. Very discreet about his family life, the famous comedian nevertheless confided in the subject of his son in the columns of the magazine Psychologies in 2011. That year, he explained why he wished his child had not gone to school, “or three hours per day maximum“.
“You can’t ask a kid to spend six hours in a classroom without becoming an idiot, or even an ‘over-idiot’.“, he then declared. At the time, Léon Debbouze had to go back to school for the first time the following year, which worried his father. “My window looks directly onto the schoolyard. I look and I swear to you, playgrounds are Kosovo. It’s crazy stuff. There is a little communion around the slide, but the rest of the time, there is fighting, jostling, hair pulling. They just reproduce what they saw in their living room. Socially, children who are elite already behave like the elite. They are haughty, arrogantchin raised a little more than the others. The other kids have their heads in, they are waiting for the sentence. It’s physical, you can see it“, emphasized Jamel Debbouze during this interview.
