Philippe Torreton: his first secrets about his 7-month-old grandson

It is rare to hear Philippe Torreton take the floor to discuss his private life. When he decides to talk about his family, it is important to lend him an attentive ear. The 56-year-old actor opened up to the daily Le Parisien in an interview during which he evokes his fears for the Earth and its future, but also to deliver her first secrets about her seven-month-old grandson. ” If I was single, I might not care, but I have children, even a grandson for seven months. When I look at him smiling, I wonder what we are preparing for him? When he will have 80 brooms, who can say on which Earth and how he will live? asks Philippe Torreton, father of four children.

The actor’s concerns are far from absurd in a world hit by the pandemic and repeated crises. They also undoubtedly motivated him to go on stage in a piece that questions our relationship to nature. The musical show, titledHere we are !, is an original creation by the actor, accompanied by Richard Kolinka, drummer of Telephone, and Aristide Rosier. Philippe Torreton finds in it an original way of prolonging his political commitment.

Confidences about the Torreton family

Political relations have not always been good in the Torreton family. The eldest daughter, Marie, was at odds with her father when she told him that she wanted to embrace the same profession as her father, a vocation that “was in [elle] “, a revelation made to the magazine Gala in 2019. Philippe Torreton nevertheless remains a father worried about his offspring and tries to lead an eco-responsible existence in the hope of offering his descendants a better future: ” I have an electric car, but I use public transport to come to Paris from Fontenay-sous-Bois. We have hens in the garden to turn our plate waste into eggs, it works very well. We try to buy as organic and local as possible, to eat in season, to moderate our meat consumption, to limit our incidental expenses, also to ask ourselves when we buy something if we really need it. Could Philippe Torreton be the first organic actor made in France?
