As a child star, Deva Cassel grew up in the spotlight. While her parents, Vincent Cassel and Monica Bellucci, tried to protect her private life, the little girl always fascinated the public. The elder sister of Léonie shared insights on the education they received. “Very early on, my parents taught us the difference between the artist and the person,” she explained.
Despite her parents’ fame, Deva Cassel was not fully aware of their status. “Certainly, they were famous, but for me, they were just doing a job that allowed us to live well. It was my normality,” she added.
Since her childhood, the young actress has been very close to her mother, Monica Bellucci. Regularly, the latter makes tender confessions about her daughter and the values she has imparted. During her interview, Deva Cassel explained: “She also let me make my own choices to learn from my mistakes.”
