Virginie Ledoyen Net Worth $6 Million
Virginie is one of two children of restauranteur Olga, and a cleaning products’ merchant Bernard Fernandez, and was raised in the Paris suburb of Aubervilliers. Apart from French, she is also of Spanish descent on her father’s side, as well as small doses of Irish, German and Belgian ancestry. Becoming a print model at the age of just two helped her to eventually perceive all the perks of show business, as she appeared in numerous television advertisements in the course of the next several years. She attended L’Ecole des Enfants du Spectacle in Paris (currently referred to as Collège Rognoni), and made her acting debut at her age of 10 in 1986, when she appeared in the comedy movie “What Every Frenchwoman Wants”, which also provided the basis for her current net worth.
Through the 1990s she honed her acting skills primarily in movies including “Les Marmottes” (1993), “L’eau Froide” (“Cold Water”, 1994) and “La Fille Seule” (“A Single Girl”, 1995). For all these engagements, she was honored with three consecutive César Awards nominations in 1994, 1995 and 1996 respectively. By the end of the 1990s, Ledoyen appeared in more demanding roles in several other French movies such as “Mahjong” (1996), “Jeanne Et Le Garçon Formidable” (“Jeanne and the Perfect Guy”, 1998) as well as in “Fin Août, Début Septembre” (“Late August, Early September”, 1998) and “En Plein Coeur” (“In All Innocence”, 1998). It is certain that all these accolades helped Virginie Ledoyen to add a sum to the total of her wealth.
However, the real breakthrough in Ledoyen’s acting career occurred in 2000, when she was cast for the role of Françoise in Danny Boyle’s critically acclaimed adventure drama movie “The Beach”, in which she starred opposite Leonardo DiCaprio. Later that year she starred in the recurring role of Cosette in historical TV drama mini series “Les Misérables”, while in 2002 she made a memorable appearance in the musical comedy movie “8 Femmes”. By the end of the 2000s, Virginie had also appeared in several more motion pictures, including “Bon Voyage” (2003), “Holly” (2006), “Shall We Kiss?” (2007) and “Army Of Crime” (2009). Doubtlessly, all these accolades made a huge impact on Virginie Ledoyen’s total net worth.
In 2011, Ledoyen was cast for the recurring role of Irina in the TV series “XIII: The Series”, which was followed by more notable roles in movies such as “Farewell, My Queen” (2012), “Another Life” and “À Votre Bon Coeur Mesdames” both in 2013. Some of her most recent acting engagements include starring as Eva Beaufils in the French TV mini-series “Juste Un Regard” in 2017, and an appearance in the 2018 TV movie “Mélancolie Ouvrière”. All these engagements have certainly contributed to the size of Virginie Ledoyen’s wealth.
Apart from all those already mentioned above, between 2000 and 2005, Ledoyen served as the spokesperson for the French cosmetics company L’Oréal, while in 2013 she served as a jury member at the 70th Venice International Film Festival.
When it comes to the personal life of Virginie Ledoyen, from her relationship with production designer Louis Soubrier, she has one daughter. Between 2006 and 2007 she was married to film director Iain Rogers while between 2007 and 2015, Ledoyen was dating a fellow actor Arie Elmaleh, with whom she has welcomed a son and a daughter.
