Daniel Auteuil, father of three children born to three different women
Daniel Auteuil has been playing this role of father for over forty years. Before savouring every moment alongside his wife Aude Ambroggi, this emblematic figure of French cinema lived several beautiful love stories during his life. From his relationships with the actresses Anne Jousset and Emmanuelle Béart two daughters were born: Aurore and Nelly.
Daniel Auteuil had his three children with three different women. His first daughter Aurore, born in 1981, was born from his romantic relationship with the actress Anne Jousset. His second daughter, Nelly, born in 1992, is the fruit of his story with Emmanuelle Béart, with whom he lived as a couple for eleven years. If he also shared the life of Marianne Denicourt until the beginning of the 2000s, he will not have a child with her.
Finally, in September 2009, Daniel Auteuil became a father for the third time when his current wife, the painter Aude Ambroggi, gave birth to little Zachary. The two lovebirds, who are twenty-seven years apart, met in 2003 before getting married in the summer of 2006.
