Cindy Fabre was not yet 20 when she was élue Miss France 2005. Since then, the beauty queen has come a long way. Between her career as a TV presenter, her runway shows as a model and her investments in charitable causesthe beautiful Nivernaise also succeeded Sylvie Tellier as general director of the Miss France committee, from 2022 to 2025. Today, she devotes herself mainly to her events agency and the creation of content, particularly on her Instagram account. On Sunday May 10, 2026, she surprised her subscribers by posting an unexpected video, in which she dares broach the subject of your weight.
“After 40 years, the body changes, that’s a fact. Me, I eat my emotions. Conclusion: I no longer lose my extra pounds like before. Stress, fatigue, disappointments, pressure, the moments when you have to keep smiling even though inside things aren’t going well… When you’re a woman, you always have to be on top†, she wrote in the caption before specifying: “And when we were Miss, people keep a fixed image of you†.
Cindy Fabre is “dépitéeâ€
Today, Cindy Fabre is not afraid to say that she gained 6 kilos and that she no longer fits into some of her jeans. “Yes, I have changed, my pants tell me that every day. How do I experience it? Wrong. Will it get better? I hope, because there are worse, but in the meantime every morning I get annoyed at no longer being what I was†, she admits while trying on the pants in her wardrobe one by one. Despite her very caring community, the former beauty queen therefore admits to having a hard time supporting his new figure.
“What’s going on? I don’t know. So is this pre-menopause? At 40, I only heard good news… So I took refuge in food. It was a real bandage! Then I swelled, swelled, swelled, swelled. (…) Do I resist or do I give up? I think we should forget the sizes which were from another era†, she explains to the camera before concluding with a sad look: “I’m really disappointed†.
Cindy Fabre has difficulty coping with the passage of time
After her year of reign, Cindy Fabre became the mother of a little boy named Elio and born in November 2012. Like all women who are slowly getting older, the model sees his body changing and has a hard time accepting it. Fortunately, she can count on the support of her community but also that of her partner, Sylvain, with whom she married in July 2024 in Dijon.
Last year, when she celebrated her 40th birthday, she already spoke to Ici Paris magazine. “Age is in the head. I prefer to define mine! Last year I was 32 years old. There, I would like to go to 35. But I won’t go beyond that!†, she joked then. Let’s hope that she quickly makes peace with her image because a beauty queen remains a beauty queen forever…
