Children have a special talent for provoking both laughter and emotion in their audience. Influencer Caroline Receveur's son, 5-year-old Marlon, is no exception to this reputation. The little boy recently made a name for himself in a story unveiled on the Instagram account of his father, model Hugo Philip. Since the announcement of his partner's illness, suffering from breast cancer, he has published many videos for his subscribers to testify to their complex daily life. On Friday, October 13, Marlon spoke fondly about his favorite activities, including a nod to his mother.

"Protecting Mom"
"What are your two favorite things in life?" asks Hugo Philip in this video. Sitting on a chair and wearing a superhero T-shirt, the little boy answers without hesitation: "Be strong at football". Seeing that the title of the question has been misunderstood, his father benevolently repeats that he wants to hear his two "favorite things." Marlon then understands and declares, "Snuggle up in bed with Mom and protect Mom." Enough to move their community on social networks but also the main one concerned who needs all the support possible on the way to recovery.
Recently, on Monday, October 9, the influencer spoke out about her illness. Caroline Receveur, who has been receiving treatment for a few months at the American Hospital in Dubai, announced that she had taken "the first step in (her) long-distance race towards a complete recovery". In a video posted on her account, she can be seen walking around the hospital where she is being treated. She warmly thanked the caregivers, who applauded her in return. And ends up ringing a bell, a symbol of this step towards remission. "I went through the roller coaster, I cried, I doubted, I was scared, but little by little all this gave way to an immense wave of kindness towards myself and towards this stage that today allows me to realize the meaning of the word: LIVE," she continued.
The French woman is grateful, but also grateful to her community. "Thank you for your support and all the love I've been getting every day since my announcement." A true message of hope, which testifies to the optimism of its author. "I still have the stages of surgery, radiation and immunotherapy, but my heart, mind and soul are at peace, and I am, for the first time in my life," she concluded. A publication that will, without a doubt, reassure its community of 5 million subscribers.
