Léa Seydoux: Her sublime mother-in-law is a former top model and a great friend of an ex-first lady

She may have perfected her acting skills thanks to “the school of life”, but Léa Seydoux is nonetheless from a family of cinema. All around her, many relatives are immersed in the world of the seventh art. His grandfather Jérome Seydoux, of course, since he is the owner of the Pathé group. And if his father Henri Seydoux has nothing to do with the big screens, since he is a businessman, and a former journalist, he is still married, since 2012, to a famous actress. The chosen one of his heart, and therefore mother-in-law of Léa Seydoux? Farida Khelfa.

Involved in the world of cinema, Farida Khelfa has acted in a dozen films, notably for Josiane Balasko, Arielle Dombasle and on several occasions for Gabriel Julien-Laferrière. She is also a documentary filmmaker, and in 2010 she focused on the crazy career of Jean-Paul Gaultier. And for good reason ! The camera is not his only ally. Farida Khelfa is also a key figure in fashion, and has collaborated as a model with the designer in the striped shirt but also with the late Azzedine Alaïa.

Léa Seydoux has two brothers-in-law

It is undoubtedly in this context that she met her great friend, our former first lady, Carla Bruni-Sarkozi. These two are simply inseparable. They attended, together, hand in hand, the tribute paid to the singer Dani in the Saint-Roch church in Paris last October. They also visit Brigitte Macron at the Elysée from time to time. On Saturday July 1, 2023, Farida Khelfa no doubt has a tender thought for her daughter-in-law. Léa Seydoux celebrates, indeed, her birthday … 38 years old, already! The 63-year-old actress is also the mother of two boys, Ismaël and Omer, Léa’s brothers-in-law, since they are from her relationship with Henri Seydoux. Discreet, we only know that the oldest was born in 1995 and that he already looks like a model… like his mother!
