If there is a constant in the life of Sébastien Chabal, it is the one with whom he has shared his life for many years: his wife, Annick. Very discreet, the one who works with her husband prefers to remain in the shadows.
On April 9, Guillaume Pley created the event by receiving Sébastien Chabal on the set of Legend. The opportunity for the former French rugby-rugby to return to the major events of his career, sports and entrepreneurial. But also to evoke his private life.
Sébastien Chabal and his wife Annick: “Fortunately she was there because …”
The former player of the French team, now 47 years old, also returned to the episodes that marked his personal life, starting with his meeting in 2000, in Bourgoin-Jallieu, with the one who then became his wife: Annick. A “Little piece of woman of 1m55” as Sébastien Chabal had described it to Release to whom he wanted to pay homage at length. “She put herself in parentheses, she stopped her job. She worked in photogravure, a passion job too (…) and then we met, we had our little one and we left for England”he said about Legend.
Former stylist who has become manager of Chabal Image, Annick is “pillar” of the ex of the XV of France despite his great discretion. “She really helped me to understand me, to listen to me (…) He is someone very very intelligent (…) I grew up next to her, and then fortunately that she was there because I think I could have done lots of bullshit. I am a little excessive so I could have left a little in all time”even added the principal concerned.
Sébastien Chabal for more than twenty years: “I think we have a real balance”
Together for over twenty years, lovers have become the parents of Lily-Rose, a young woman born in 2005, passionate about photography and drawing, like her mother. Moreover, if Sébastien Chabal had only one daughter, his wife Annick is also the mother of Maud, born in 1994 of a previous union.
Two children that the couple has raised together, respecting the value of money even if the athlete has very well earned his life: “I think that I lost the battle because life would have been much harder for her if I was only I who had chosen. But I am happy to have lost it because when I see the young women that they are today, they have the plumb, the value of money, they are not capricious …”said the one who claims to have lost his memory. Also questioned by Guillaume Pley on the longevity of his couple, Sébastien Chabal replied from TAC to the tac: “I think we have a real balance. Having our own moments of loneliness, moments when we are not together”.
