Enough to spark the wildest rumors about the state of the man who is now 54 years old and remains very discreet in the media.
Sylvain Mirouf fully assumes this discretion and it corresponds in particular to the evolution of his intimate life, he who became the father of a daughter with his ex-wife. “It started when I became a dad.
