French model Thylane Blondeau married her longtime partner, actor and DJ Ben Attal, in a civil ceremony at the Mairie du 16ème arrondissement in Paris on Monday. The 25-year-old model exchanged vows with Attal just three months after announcing their engagement in March.
Wedding Details
Blondeau wore a custom couture gown by Eva Bouskila Bridal, featuring a floor-length white dress with a capelet. Attal opted for a navy suit. The couple arrived in a platinum Porsche 356 Speedster, with the Eiffel Tower providing the backdrop for the celebrations.
Engagement Announcement
Blondeau announced her engagement to Attal in March following a proposal during a holiday in Greece. Sharing the news on social media, she wrote, "I said yes to my best friend. Here's to forever."
Career and Early Fame
Blondeau first rose to international fame at age six after being described as the "most beautiful girl in the world" by Vogue Enfants in 2006. She began modeling at age four and became the youngest model to appear in Vogue Paris at just 10 years old. Her early career attracted controversy following a 2010 fashion editorial, with critics questioning the styling and presentation of the then-preteen model.
Despite the criticism, Blondeau established a successful career, walking for leading fashion houses and securing major advertising campaigns. In 2018, she was again named the "most beautiful girl" by TC Candler's annual list, but she distanced herself from the label. Speaking to The Telegraph that year, Blondeau said, "Even today, people are like, 'You are the most beautiful girl.' And I'm like, 'No, I'm still not; I'm just a human being, a teenager.'"
Relationship Timeline
Blondeau and Attal began dating in 2020, and their Paris wedding marks the latest milestone in their six-year relationship.
