Hot news broke on Friday, June 27, from the French cinema world as Oscar winner Marion Cotillard and actor-director Guillaume Canet parted ways ending a high-profile 18-year relationship.
Cotillard won an Academy Award in 2008 for her performances in “La Vie en Rose” and is France’s best-known star globally.
She has also starred with Brad Pitt in the World War II romantic thriller “Allied” and Leonardo DiCaprio in “Inception.”
Canet has an accomplished career in acting and directing and played in “The Beach” with DiCaprio.
The 49-year-old Cotillard and 52-year-old Canet starred together in the French Belgian film “Love Me If You Dare” in 2003, which turned out to be a box office hit for her.
They began dating in 2007. They welcomed their first child, named Marcel in 2011. And six years later, in 2017, they were blessed with a second child, a baby girl, Louise.
