The corona lockdown was also a challenge for Carla Bruni and Nicolas Sarkozy – for example when it came to teaching and alcohol.
Her husband Nicolas Sarkozy (65) has not had to decide about the fate of France since 2012. Luckily. Because Carla Bruni (52) is not sad about not being a première lady, especially not in times of Corona. As such, she would only have to deal with "amateurs" these days and with a view to the USA, as she said in an interview with "Welt am Sonntag".
Like many other people around the world, Bruni and Sarkozy were affected by the corona lockdown in France in the spring. A circumstance that put her skills as a substitute teacher for their eight-year-old daughter Giulia to the test: "After the fifth day of homeschooling, I went crazy. So much housework! I couldn't help my daughter Giulia because I was earlier a bad student, "says Bruni.
When one day her husband and daughter sat down for an online lesson with the whole class, everyone's concentration waned for another reason: “Everyone's freaked out. 'Oh, Giulia's father is in our class – hello, monsieur le Président '(laughs). That was very funny for a change. Otherwise, it was a very difficult time as far as school was concerned, because under these difficult conditions we noticed how important it is for children to be taught in a school can."
Voluntary waiver of wine
Out of sheer self-protection, the wine lover didn't drink a drop after a week of lockdown, as Bruni revealed: "Curfews encourage drinking. At least I noticed that quickly after the first week and then decided to get through the period of house arrest dryly in future . "
