La femme de média et le rugbyman international sont ensemble depuis huit ans. Installés à Grabels avec leurs deux enfants, ils viennent de lancer leur marque de vêtements : Fake real love. Un vrai fake ? On vous explique.

"We all want to be Ariane and Fufu!" Ariane is Ariane Brodier, a regular on TV, notably one of Arthur's recurring guests in Friday anything goes, actress in Camping Paradis or even adventurer in Fort Boyard. And incidentally, an influencer with one million subscribers on Instagram. Fufu is Fulgence Ouedraogo, emblematic captain of Montpellier Hérault Rugby, international on 39 occasions, the first MHR player to have worn the jersey of the French team. Today, he who has only known one club in his career is its first ambassador.

"He is blond with blue eyes ?"

Together, they form the celebrity and glamorous couple of Montpellier. Rather discreet, they are based in Grabels. Their notoriety goes far beyond the local framework. "It's a friend, my press officer who told me one day: I know the man of your life& nbsp;!, says Ariane Brodier. She gave us the greatest gift. I answered her: he is blond with blue eyes? She told me: almost!"

Eight years and two children later, they have fun. Like everything else. Starting with their first meeting, in Pariss. "He didn’not have the pressure, continue Ariane. It’was catastrophic. The day before, I knew that I had to do a big radio interview. So, I told him: we're going to have dinner at 10 p.m. It’s a bit lame. I was very, very anxious, I wanted to please her." Fulgence : "I knew her through the media". Ariane : "I didn't know him. My father, yes. I think he's the happiest."

Beautiful, rich and famous, as the expression goes. So, here we come again: "we all want to be Ariane and Fufu" ? The sentence is from a third thief. His name is Alexis Baranowski, from Nîmes, who came from football and went through the Nîmes Olympique training center. He came into their lives thanks to Aurélie, photographer and one of Ariane’s best friends. A meeting far from being trivial: Alexis dresses Ariane on her show broadcast every morning on France 3 at 9:30, You are wonderful< /em>. Enough to take her back to her first loves, she who, at the age of 20, obtained her stylist diploma and notably worked with Orchestra. Fulgence also recognizes : "I love fashion, even if I'm not an expert. I like to dress well, look good." Together they speak the same language. And they set up their brand, Fake real love. Fake, like fake, but especially like the initials of Fufu, Ariane and their children.
