Meet Léonie Cassel, Monica Bellucci and Vincent Cassel’s Daughter

Jason Bateman and Amanda Anka, both American actors, are the parents of Francesca Nora Bateman. Francesca, who is currently 16 years old, was born on October 20, 2006.

Jason Bateman, the father of Francesca, is well-known for his roles as Marty Byrde in the Netflix thriller Ozark and as Michael Bluth in the Fox/Netflix comedies Arrested Development and Arrested Development. Jason, an actor who has won numerous awards, has achieved success in the entertainment industry. Despite his stellar professional achievements, the Ozark actor has remained a devoted family man. What is known about Francesca Nora, his oldest child:

Léonie Cassel is 13 years old at the moment. She was born in Rome, Italy, on the 21st of May 2010. Her birth sign is Gemini, and she was born into a Christian home. Léonie is of Italian ancestry and has a mixed ethnic group. She has dual citizenship, thanks to her parents; she is Italian and French.

Her mother is an Italian national born in Città di Castello, Umbria, while her father is a French national born in Paris, France. Léonie speaks both Italian and French and shows her mastery of the two international languages. She is growing up with her only biological sister Deva Cassel who is 6 years older than her. Sadly, their parents are now divorced.

As a result, she and her sister share their time between their mother and father, although they are both living in Paris, France. Her sister Deva born on 12th September 2004, is already making a name for herself in the modeling industry. Deva made her modeling debut at age 14 in a Dolce & Gabbana fragrance commercial.

She later became their runway model and has walked many other runways. In July 2021, Deva, alongside her mother, Monica, appeared on the cover of Italian Vogue. Meanwhile, Léonie has a younger sister, Amazonie, born on 19 April 2019. She is a product of her father’s second marriage.

Who are Léonie Cassel’s Parents?

Léonie Cassel was born to her celebrity parents Monica Bellucci and Vincent Cassel. Her mother, Monica Bellucci, 58, is currently one of the most successful and famous Italian models and actresses. Bellucci has since her childhood had an interest in fashion. She was introduced to modeling at the age of 13 after posing for a family photographer friend in Città di Castello.

She kept modeling as a part-time job but later took the bold step and moved to Europe’s fashion capital Milan to pursue a full-time modeling career. Bellucci got signed with some of the most notable and high-profile fashion houses across the world, such as Dolce & Gabbana, Cartier, and Christian Dior, Elle France, among many others.

In 1990, Bellucci took another step toward becoming an actress. She started with supporting roles and gradually progressed to major supporting roles in high-grossing blockbusters such as The Matrix Revolutions, The Matrix Reloaded, The Brothers Grimm, The Passion of the Christ, Tears of Sun, etc. Today, she has got her breakthrough and is now an established actress in the entertainment industry.

Léonie’s father, Vincent Cassel, is equally successful in his own right, although his ex-wife Monica is arguably more famous than him. Vincent Cassel, 56, is an actor and director who was first launched to public recognition following his performance as a troubled Jewish youth in the 1995 film La Haine. The movie earned him two César Award nominations. He is a recipient of a Canadian Screen Award and a César Award.

Vincent Cassel has since 2000 transitioned into English films, and some of his most popular movies and TV series include Irréversible, Mesrine, Read My Lips, It’s Only the End of the World, Ocean’s Twelve, Ocean’s Thirteen, Eastern Promises, Westworld, The Specials, and other.

Léonie Cassel’s Parents are no Longer Together

Léonie Cassel’s parents, Monica Bellucci and Vincent Cassel were married for 14 years, from 1999 to 2013, and they welcomed their two children, Deva and Léonie, within these years. The former couple met for the first time in 1996 while working on the set of The Apartment.

Three years later, in 1999, they got married in Monaco, and while this was Voncent’s first marriage, it was Bellucci’s second. She was previously married to Italian photographer Claudio Carlos Basso, but their marriage lasted for just six months. As much as the public knows, Bellucci and Vincent lived together peacefully as long as their marriage lasted and worked together in several movies.

However, they suddenly announced their separation on the 26th of August 2013, and Bellucci would go on to file for a divorce in the same year citing irreconcilable differences. There has been no verified information regarding the reason that led to their divorce. The duo has, however, remained close since then, although they have moved on with different partners.

Vincent Cassel married French model Tina Kunakey on 24 August 2018 in Bidart, France, after they dated for two years. They currently share a 4-year-old daughter born on 19th April 2019. Bellucci, on her part, is not remarried but is presently in a relationship with American filmmaker Tim Burton. They have been dating since October 2022.

Léonie Cassel is Still a Student and Has Not Yet Chosen a Career Path

Although the name of her school is unknown, we assume Léonie Cassel would be a student. Léonie is undoubtedly still a young woman and has not yet expressed any interest in a particular career route. She is currently subsisting on her parents’ notoriety and fortune while concentrating on her education.

Although she does not yet have a specific vocation in mind, there are hopes that whichever path she chooses as she gets older will lead to her becoming a well-known figure in her own right, much like her parents. She is not yet active on any social media sites, and her parents appear to be keeping her private details hidden and out of the public eye.

Léonie enjoys a positive relationship with both of her parents. Despite their divorce, they continue to actively co-parent their two daughters and make individual efforts to spend quality time with them. However, they tend to keep these moments private. On July 5th, 2019, the actor shared an image of his two daughters on social media with the caption, “I am the happiest man in the world.”
