She married Prince Emanuele Filiberto, heir to the House of Savoy, in 2003, but she never wanted to be just “the wife of”. Sophisticated, discreet, Clotilde Courau turns 55 on April 3rd and has already spent 20 of her years with her husband. A union, theirs, strengthened by the birth of two daughters – Vittoria, presumed future queen of an Italian throne that does not exist – and Luisa, but polluted by the rumors of betrayal that the prince himself silenced during his participation to very truelast autumn: “I have friends and girlfriends. Clotilde and I have great mutual trust, of course there have been difficult moments, in 20 years of marriage it is inevitable”, he said.
Two daughters and a continuous slalom between magazines in search of gossip about her private life have not stopped Clotilde Courau from continue her acting careerpursuing a passion that has inspired her since she was a child and which made her leave her studies at just 16 years old.
The love story between Clotilde and Emanuele Filiberto (with Alberto di Monaco in the role of cupid)
On September 25, 2003, the heir of the Savoy family married a promising French actress. Two decades later they are still together, through ups and downs. Although many people ask: but where does she live, Clotilde? The love story between the grandson of the last king of Italy and the daughter of a baron and a countess begins when the two are introduced by a mutual friend: Prince Albert of Monacowho acts as cupid on an unspecified day in the early 2000s.
Il marriage arrives in 2003, celebrated in the basilica of Santa Maria degli Angeli in Rome with the bride in Valentino dressbut Clotilde does not want to conform to the new social role and indeed claims her independence: “I have a public and a private life. I am an artist called Clotilde Courau. Talking about me only as a princess would be very reductive compared to my career” he declared in September 2010, the day after his performance in the temple of the nude, the Crazy Horse in Paris.
Not just a wife, therefore, and not even a mother. “For years I was a working mother. I took Vittoria and Luisa to school and I was very present in their lives and in their education while I carried out my professional activity”, she recently told Elle France. “Now my daughters are grown up and independent. I have more time to dedicate to my career, so I work more! I play sports every day, see my friends, go to the museum, in short, I’m never bored.”
Clotilde managed to balance the roles of actress and mother, therefore, but it cannot be said that she recorded the same success in her career. couple life; she and Emanuele Filiberto drift apart over the years. He returns to Italy and starts a career in the world of entertainment by participating in various broadcasts (from the Sanremo Festival to Amici di Maria De Filippi) and, in the meantime, Clotilde continues to act for theatre, cinema and TV. In fact, therefore, they live in different places: she divides her time between France and Switzerland while he often travels to Italy but is based in Los Angeles. It is no coincidence that Courau has tracked down in 2021 the key to the “success” of her marriage with the prince in the “separate domiciles”: «Life is not a fairy tale, but a struggle. And those of us who live in reality know this very well.” The last event that sees them reunited is in black: at the funeral of Vittorio Emanuele, celebrated last February 10th in Turin; “Clotilde and dad were very close”, the new head of the House of Savoy told us.
Clotilde, cinema and fashion
As an actress, Clotilde has often changed her look. She, however, never betrays her effortless chic style, because she is a beauty without artifice. “When I dress I let myself be guided by my love for fashion”, she told herself during an interview during which she had also given her “secret” shopping addresses. “If I choose a dress it is because it suits me, because it adapts to the context where I have to wear it and because I have a particular relationship with whoever created it, for this reason I only rarely use a stylist, when I don’t feel confident enough on my own “. On her birthday, we retrace her life and her best looks.
