Wed Secretly To Michel Combes And Welcomed A Son

Aforementioned, Michel Combes usually does not disclose his personal life in public. So does his wife, Christie Julien. The good-looking couple rarely appears in public together and shares very little about each other on their social networking handles. As a result, there are no details on their marriage day and when they started dating.

However, seeing the rare pictures of the married pair in some online sources, they seem to be together way before 2017. In 2017, the British-American visual media company Getty Images had captured them attending the 2017 French Tennis Open-Day Fifteen in Paris, France. Moreover, Michel Combes’ wife Christie has posted a couple of photos of them together on her Facebook and Instagram. Seeing their pictures, it looks like the secretive pair is happy with their marital life and feels blessed to have each other as life partners.

Christie’s Facebook and Instagram are full of pictures of her toddler with her husband, Michel Combes.

Currently, Michel Combes and his beloved wife, Christie Julien, live a happy life with their son, Leonard Combes, in Paris. They often visit the United States for a family vacation and their work.
