Julian Alaphilippe is not living the best moment of his career, but he knows he can count on the support of those close to him and that is probably the most important thing in his eyes. The 29-year-old French cyclist has been a public darling for several years now and his fabulous exploits in the Tour de France have greatly contributed to this. Alongside his brilliant professional career, the native of Cher lives a very beautiful love story with the consultant specializing in cycling, Marion Rousse.
The two lovebirds have been living together since 2019 and last year they had the pleasure of welcoming their first child. On June 14, 2021, little Nino came into the world and since then, the new parents only have eyes for him. It must be said that this little blond with blond eyes is particularly cute! If everything was going well now, Julian Alaphilippe has just posted some rather sad news on his Instagram account. Followed by more than 868,000 subscribers, the double world champion on the road has just announced that he was very ill and therefore had to give up the next deadlines for his team…
Sad to leave the team, especially after a tough week of racing
“No Milan-San Remo for me on Saturday. Bronchitis + fever”, sums up the athlete in the commentary to his publication. He’s going to have to stay quietly in bed for the next few days, which he doesn’t particularly like. “Sad to leave the team, especially after a difficult week of racing on Tirreno Adriatico where I felt the legs were coming back well despite my crash at the Strade bianche”he continues, before announcing the program for the next few days: “Rest and patience on the program. See you soon”. A blow for the champion who felt a rise in power in recent weeks. Fortunately, Marion Rousse is there to cheer him up and while the post is only a few hours old, she has already sent a comment a little heart to her lover to support him.
