Victoria Abril is facing a very complicated moment. The unforgettable protagonist of Tacones Lejanos has been accused by the French actress Lucie Lucas, her partner in the famous French series Clem, of having committed sexual assaults against other performers, after the Spanish actress showed her solidarity with Gérard Depardieu for accusations precisely of that kind
In a comment published on the Instagram network, Lucas shows his indignation with the actress, whom he blames for what he says were his own behaviors. But who is Lucie Lucas?
Lucie Lucas made her debut in the world of cinema at the age of 21, in the film 15 and a Half Years. Her transition to television came in 2009 with the series The Little Homicides of Ágatha Christie. Her path would cross with Victoria Abril just a year later, when she landed the role of Clémentine Boissier, protagonist of Clem, on TF1. A relationship that lasted no less than eight years, until April’s character, Carol, Clémentine’s mother; He disappeared from the main cast in 2018.
Until now, relations in the gallery were good between the two and the dedications on social networks do not indicate any sign of problems between them. In the Spanish actress’s farewell to the series, Lucas did not hesitate to assure that Abril was “a great actress” and that she had “taught him a lot.”
“Thank you for everything, I know you will continue to put beauty in our lives with your talent and I will not miss any of your work. We’ll see you soon, mom, we have to do it. I love you so much! ”She then wrote on Instagram.
But it seems that, over the years, the French actress has clearly changed her attitude towards the Spanish actress. What’s more, reflecting on those times, he even blames himself for having defended those serious behaviors and for always saying things like “everything went very well on the recording, that everyone is so nice and adorable… When often! It’s totally false! How many inadmissible behaviors have I kept silent about? ”She asked herself.
The actress has been highly criticized by her followers, having decided to make these crimes public now and not years ago. However, Lucas, 37, claimed that she had held back because she wanted to “continue working” (via Télé-Loisirs).
“As Juliette Binoche very well said, I am one of those people who never want to do harm. I lacked courage, discernment, lucidity… Of course, I have my share of responsibility in silence,” she said honestly.
Victoria Abril has reacted by keeping quiet in response to the press colleagues who have tried to contact her, and it is only known that she is “calm”, as her entourage has conveyed to Europa Press. However, another actor from Clem’s cast wanted to break her silence to support the Spanish actress.
Kevin Elarbi, who played Hicham, Clem’s best friend in the TF1 series, spoke on
“Victoria Abril has integrity and has freedom of expression. Whether we agree or not, she has the right to speak. Without fascist dictatorship of censorship. I told her yesterday so that she can be assured of my unconditional support. Working with her at Clem was an honor,” he said, insisting that he knew “what I’m talking about,” in the face of criticism from other users.
