In En Aparté, Friday February 10, 2023, Valérie Bonneton confided in the serious illness of which her son suffered when he was 4 years old. The mother of the family remembered the hell she had lived during this period.
Having a sick child is probably one of the worst things for a parent. It is not Valérie Bonneton who will say the opposite. The famous actress was indeed confronted with the disease with her son, Joseph, when he was four years old.. In As an aside, Friday February 10, 2023, the former companion of François Cluzet returned to this very difficult period where she spent a lot of time with her son in the hospital, while he was suffering from leukemia. “What is sublime is that today is magnificent: my boy is healthy“, she confided at first before adding: “He has no bad memories when I talk to him about his illness. He said to me: ‘No, I don’t remember that it was serious.’ I believe that I have never given so much to transform everything, so that he has no bad memories, so that everything is joy. He loved the doctors, he loved the nurses in the hospital.”
When her son’s illness broke out, Valérie Bonneton was constantly on film sets. She did not hesitate for a single second to stop everything to devote herself 100% to her eldest child. “I haven’t worked all these years because I was with Joseph day and night all the time.. I kept busy with it, but it was never a sacrifice: it was my life, it was like that“, she further explained.
