Philippe Risoli was this Thursday, September 21, the guest of Jordan de Luxe on his show At Jordan’s on C8. He spoke about his private life, and more particularly the education of his two children, Tiffany and Alexandre. “It’s hard to protect them (notoriety, editor’s note)”, confides the host, before telling an anecdote of what his son suffered when he was young. “I remember one day, my son, for example, went to do a 2-day class organized by the school. In the bus, the bus driver called him : ‘you, the million’. ‘The million come here, the million come there’, It’s true that sometimes it’s a bit heavy“, says Philippe Risoli. He nevertheless specifies that he never had to intervene because his children were not “prone to too many problems“. He also claims to have done everything to “protect their privacy” and ensure that his notoriety is never a burden on their future. Philippe Risoli has always been discreet, avoiding showing his children, but also his wife.
