Revealed by its participation in the Jamel Comedy Club in 2006, Blanche Gardin is now a successful actress. We find her tonight in the film selfie broadcast on France 2 and in which appear, among others, Elsa Zylberstein, Max Boublil, Manu Payet or even Fanny Sidney.
But before becoming a successful actress, Blanche Gardin had a difficult past. In August 2020, the 45-year-old released a biography titled The Dream Life of Blanche Gardin (editions l’Archipel) in collaboration with the journalist Nathalie Simon in which she returned to her first marriage with Nicolas Deconinck, painter. It was in the early 1990s that the two lovebirds met on the benches of high school before concretizing in 1998 and divorcing in 2004.“Blanche arrived in a magnificent burgundy-colored sari with her bottle green eyes and a physically visible intellectual lightness, I found her splendid. It was the first time I had seen her dressed other than with military pants and docks “, said the ex-husband of Blanche Gardin in the bio. The 45-year-old actress even recalled her wedding to the 45-year-old actress where they were dressed as Frida Kahlo and Diego Rivero: “We had our wedding rings made at Tati Or and they made a mistake in the spelling of the names inside. Instead of putting Blanche and Nico, they had written Blanche and Rico”she recalled.
