who is Vicky Krieps, his last companion?

On January 19, the world learned of the sudden death of Gaspard Ulliel after a skiing accident. The actor left at only 37 years old after a shock with another skier, which occurred at the resort of La Rosière in Haute-Savoie. On January 27, 2022, his family and loved ones gathered at the Saint-Eustache church in Paris to pay him a last tribute. In the crowd, we could see the actress Vicky Krieps who appeared very moved. According to the website Purepeople, the Luxembourg actress would be the last companion of Gaspard Ulliel. Indeed, while he was still believed to be married to Gaëlle Pietri, the mother of his son Orso, it would seem that the couple had been separated for several years already.

Purepeople therefore argues that Gaspard Ulliel and Vicky Krieps would have met in 2019 when they were both members of the jury of the 45th American Film Festival in Deauville and lived since an idyll. On Instagram, the 38-year-old paid tribute to the actor by posting a photo of a lit candle the night he passed away. The next day, she posted a snap of a cloud, along with the caption, “Gaspard in the sky. You’re going home.”

One last movie together

Vicky Krieps is far from anonymous. She has an already well established acting career in France, Germany and Luxembourg since she has acted in around thirty films. In 2017, she became more widely known with her role in “Phantom Thread”, directed by American filmmaker Paul Thomas Anderson, where she plays alongside Daniel Day-Lewis. Vicky Krieps is also nominated for the César 2022 in the category “Best actress” for her role in “Serre moi fort”.

In the near future, we will be able to find Gaspard Ulliel and Vicky Krieps in “More than ever”, a feature film directed by Emily Atef, in which the two actors gave each other the reply. This tells the story of a young woman in her thirties who learns that she has a rare lung disease. While the release date has not been revealed, filming wrapped last year according to Closer.
