Nicolas Sarkozy And Carla Bruni Celebrate Anniversary In Venice

On February 2, 2008, the famous model Carla Bruni and former French President Nicolas Sarkozy legalized their relationship. The couple decided to celebrate the wedding anniversary and birthday of Sarkozy, which was on January 28, in the most romantic city on earth - Venice. The couple enjoyed their time together and took a ride on the gondola!

The couple walked through the shops and streets of Venice. Like all tourists who once visited the romantic city, Sarkozy and Bruni took a ride on a gondola. At that time, the supermodel posted a photo on Instagram and congratulated her husband: “11 years ago at 11 am we got married. And 11 years later, we are still walking hand in hand. It's luck,”she said.

Quite different fates were connected together and to this day the couple cannot understand life without each other. But for Sarkozy it all began in a poor family, where his father cheated on his mother and left her penniless. His father did not help his mother with money, so Nicolas was used to working for food from childhood. After studying to be a political scientist, the future French president quietly worked as a courier in a flower shop, while 19-year-old Bruni sported at fashion shows in the clothes of such famous fashion houses as Christian Dior, Paco Rabanne, Yves Saint Laurent, Chanel, Versace.

If Sarkozy was busy making money and teaching, then Karla conquered and broke the hearts of men. Models have even been credited with having an affair with current US President Donald Trump. Who would have thought that only at the age of 40, Charles would meet his betrothed, the President of France. The future spouses were introduced by mutual friends at a social dinner. On February 2, 2008, Karla and Nicolas had a secret wedding. Only 20 people gathered in the Elysee Palace and no media. For Sarkozy, this marriage was the third, for Bruni - the second.

It is known that they got married so quickly due to the future reception of the Queen of Great Britain in March 2008. According to the rules, Nicolas could introduce Karla only in the status of a legal wife. So Karla became the first lady of France. True, the model did not enjoy the status and continued to sing!

True, the public did not believe in the sincerity of the relationship between the president and the first lady, but only predicted their imminent separation after Sarkozy left the presidency.

“All I can say is that for me as a woman, this meeting was important and unexpected in terms of tenderness, trust, communication and mutual understanding. For the first time I feel that I am understood and supported, for the first time I myself understand and support. For the first time, I give a lot and receive the same amount in return,”Karla told reporters earlier about her feelings for Sarkozy.

On October 19, 2011, the couple had a lovely daughter, Julia!
