If Adèle Exarchopoulos is the ultra-solicited actress that we know, currently starring in the film I will always see your faces, she is also a mother. Single, moreover. Which sometimes pushes her to make sacrifices, as she confided to Madame Figaro in an interview published Thursday, May 11, 2023. It was a cross interview between the 29-year-old actress and Léa Seydoux. As a reminder, the two women shared the poster of The Life of Adele, directed by Abdellatif Kechiche. Released in 2013, the film had a huge impact. “In ten years, you have become mothers. How has that changed the women and actresses that you are?”, asked the newspaper. The response from the mother of little Ishmael, 5, whom she had with the rapper Doums, was without concessions: “Now that my son is in school, I can no longer bring him to the sets all the time, it pushes me to make better choices and sometimes also sacrifices: I could not bear a life too far from him, too far from the daily.”
Adèle Exarchopoulos: “becoming a mother has shaken up my certainties”
The one who had won the palme d’or at 17 at the 2013 Cannes Film Festival continued: “Becoming a mother shook up my certainties, it’s a huge responsibility, and, at the same time, I’m rediscovering the world through his child’s eyes. Motherhood nurtures me in how I approach my roles, but it’s still very subconscious.” Very discreet about her private life, Adèle Exarchopoulos had granted an interview to Psychologies, Thursday, March 23, 2023.”I don’t know if I will leave so much freedom to my son. The frame is important. Me, I have long tested the limits, those of reasonableness and patience”, she confided. Also adding, about his own parents: “They gave me a lot of freedom. To be who I am, to go out late, to work quickly, to leave the house quickly […] My mother had me very young too, at 25. She worked at Castorama while she prepared medicine. I had never measured all that it could represent, the strength, the courage that she had“.
