Monica Bellucci finding herself in her 50s
It gave her the recognition she longed for. She was nominated for a César Award for Most Promising Actress, and met her husband-to-be, Cassel, the charismatic French actor best known for his roles in Ocean’s Twelve and Black Swan. Known as Les Glamours, the couple went on to make eight more films together.
Women look at themselves in a different way today and because of that we are watched in a different way Although they are now divorced and living on different continents – he is in Brazil – she says their relationship is amiable. ‘When you have kids it’s important to have a relationship if it’s possible.’ She says Cassel is a good father but works and travels a lot, so the girls live with her.
Life nowadays is bound up with her children. ‘The fact I had my kids late’ – in her 40s – ‘gives me the freedom to make one film a year and then I can spend the rest of my time with them,’ Bellucci says. She prepares their breakfast, walks her younger daughter to school; they mostly eat dinner as a family.
‘If I need to go out, I go out, but kids like it when their mother is there.’ She has houses in Rome and Lisbon, a relationship (she smiles, shakes her head and refuses to elaborate) and a new independence. ‘I am completely in charge of my life, 100 per cent.’
