Benjamin Baroche: will his daughter want to become an actress?
“I have never put a photo of my wife or my daughter on social networks. By doing a public job, I consider it important to preserve the peace of my family”, he declared. On the other hand, if his granddaughter wants to follow in her father’s footsteps and become an actress later, it would be for him “good news”.
“If that’s what she wants… Well, she’ll do it! After all, that would be good news, there’s no reason. Besides, she has already done some tests for a fiction. But as soon as she saw that she had to miss school, she told me: “No dad, I don’t want to anymore.” Despite her young age, she has a sense of priorities!” he laughs.
