Goliath
, in March 2022. Gilles Lellouche, who returns behind the camera this year with his film
L'Amour ouf
, which is scheduled for theatrical release on October 24 , lives happy days alongside his partner and mother of his son Jules, Alizée Guinochet.
We discovered her in 2015, with incendiary blonde hair, climbing the steps of the Cannes Film Festival on the arm of her fiancé, who was then presenting the cartoon
Vice Versa on the Croisette,
of which he provided one of the French voices.

Since then, the 36-year-old former model still lends herself from time to time to the social game.
She also occasionally makes a few rare appearances on screen - such as in Guillaume Canet's
Rock'n'Roll
- although her art is practiced far from the cameras.
Very discreet, we do not know of any official account on social networks.
Only those from her jewelry brand, And Paris, promoted by famous faces, such as Adèle Exarchopoulos, Caroline de Maigret and Leïla Bekhti.

Beginnings in the United States
Before retraining in jewelry, Alizée dreamed of being a model for a long time.
In the early 2000s, she began a career in the United States, initially working for agencies such as Next Model Management, Chic Management and Fashion Model Management.
Born in 1986, the young woman is 24 years old and poses for a few magazine covers.
Then she meets magician David Blaine, known worldwide for his crazy
street magic
performances .
In 1999, the man allowed himself to be buried for 7 days in a plastic coffin, without eating and drinking only a few tablespoons a day.
Recently, he flew to an altitude of 7,600 meters, attached to a bunch of balloons.
He is also in the book of records, for having held his breath for 17 minutes during an Oprah Winfrey show, in the 1990s. A universe which is in line with what Alizée Guinochet came to seek across the Atlantic : a hectic, tumultuous and passionate life.
The couple got engaged in 2009, and gave birth to a daughter, Dessa, in January 2011.

Return to France
What happens next is a mystery.
A time capsule with unknown contours.
Three years of unanswered questions: why did Alizée Guinochet and David Baine separate?
How did the first meet Gilles Lellouche, her future fiancé?
What persuaded her to return to France?
In 2013, the director of Le
Grand Bain
just separated from actress Mélanie Doutey, after eleven years of relationship.
The couple had a daughter, Ava, born four years earlier.
Newly single, it would therefore be in the United States that Gilles Lellouche would have met Alizée, 14 years his junior.
In 2015, when their romance was made official, the actor was 43 years old, his new partner was 29.
When she was still in a relationship with David Blaine, Alizée Guinochet tried herself as an actress appearing in a few films.
She can be seen in particular in the feature film
Jewish Connection
, by Kevin Asch, in 2010, where she plays a small role alongside Jesse Eisenberg (
The Social Network
).
It is therefore natural that Guillaume Canet, close friend of Gilles Lellouche, will offer him an appearance in his film
Rock'n'Roll
, released in 2017. But the former model plays comedy more for fun than to make a living from it.
Upon her return to France, Dessa's mother wanted to reinvent herself and drew on her family heritage.
As reported by
Télé-Loisirs
, her grandfather was a jeweler, and her mother was the creative director of a costume jewelry house in London, when Alizée was a child.
Thus, in 2016, the latter launched the first official collection of its brand, called “AND... Paris”.

A businesswoman
A few years ago, Alizée Guinochet still showed her face to highlight her creations.
But faced with the success of her label, the businesswoman now leaves this task to others.
On his Instagram account the whole “band of friends” of Gilles Lellouche poses with their finery.
Leila Bekhti and Marion Cotillard were the first to trust the designer, followed by Adèle Exarchopoulos, Marina Foïs, Élodie Bouchez and Caroline de Maigret.
Other celebrities such as Nicola Peltz, Brooklyn Beckham's wife, have also adopted minimalist jewelry by And Paris.
On November 13, 2022, the Lellouche-Guinochet couple welcomed their first child, named Jules.
The baby was born at the American Hospital in Neuilly-sur-Seine.
The couple has continued to enjoy perfect love ever since.
On November 30, 2023, the actor made some confidences about the secrets, according to him, of the sustainability of a couple: “A partner is someone who must be made to dream, to fantasize, it must also remain something something absolutely sexy.
Adventure is sexy.
When it’s no longer an adventure, then it’s everyday life.”
