Meet Thylane Blondeau's Real Husband, And No, It's NOT The Ben Attal That The Internet Thinks

French model Thylane Blondeau, twice identified as the 'Most Beautiful Girl in the World,' has been all over the news for her romantic Paris wedding with her longtime beau, Benjamin Attal. While the celebrations and Blondeau's stunning minimal bridal outfit made waves online, fans have been curious to know who the lucky man is. And no, it's not the French actor and DJ, Ben Attal!

It turns out that celebrity profile pages and social media posts have incorrectly identified Blondeau's husband as Ben Attal, the French actor and son of Charlotte Gainsbourg and Yvan Attal. However, available public information indicates that the actor Ben Attal is already married to Jordane Crantelle, making the viral claims about him marrying Blondeau inaccurate.

Where the confusion started

The mix-up appears to stem from the similarity in names and, to some extent, appearances. When Blondeau announced her engagement earlier this year, she revealed she had said yes to her longtime boyfriend, Benjamin Attal, writing:

"I said yes to my best friend. Here's to forever."

Since then, numerous entertainment pages have shortened Benjamin's name to Ben Attal, leading many readers to assume he was the well-known French actor and the grandson of Jane Birkin, the muse behind the iconic Hermès Birkin Bag. The confusion snowballed after several reports and social media posts referred to the groom simply as 'Ben Attal' without clarifying that he is not the actor from the famous Gainsbourg-Attal family. 

Ben Attal is married to someone else

Jane Birkin's grandson, 29, is the son of popular French actress Charlotte Gainsbourg and filmmaker Yvan Attal. French publications such as Gala.fr have reported that the actor has been married to former Chanel press officer Jordane Crantelle, 13 years his senior. In fact, they are just about to celebrate their third wedding anniversary this Wednesday, on July 1, 2026. This further confirms that the actor definitely did not marry Blondeau.

Ben Attal's wife, Crantelle, built a career in luxury fashion communications before launching her own agency in Los Angeles and has largely stayed away from entertainment headlines despite her connections to the fashion industry.

So, who is Thylane Blondeau's husband, Benjamin?

Unlike the popular French actor, Blondeau's husband, Benjamin, maintains an exceptionally low public profile. There is hardly any information available about his background, and it was not until he was featured in the model's social media photos that he gained popularity.

Benjamin has kept his social media private; as per some publicly available details, he is a businessman and not an actor. According to reports, the 29-year-old lives primarily in Paris but often travels internationally. He and Blondeau have a shared love for luxury travel, classic cars and the French Riviera. Despite being married to one of France's most recognizable models, Benjamin has largely avoided public attention and interviews except for the times he attended some of Blondeau's fashion events.

The 25-year-old model's family has given Benjamin a hearty welcome to their lives. After Benjamin proposed, Blondeau's mother, former TV presenter Véronika Loubry, shared heartfelt messages for the newly engaged couple, thanking her son-in-law for being there for the family after the passing of her husband, French producer Gérard Kadoche.

Inside Thylane Blondeau and Benjamin Attal's wedding

On Monday, June 29, 2026, Thylane and Ben got married in a town hall ceremony at the Mairie du 16ème arrondissement in Paris, just three months after their romantic engagement in Greece. Their closest family and friends attended the couple's wedding.

For her wedding day, Blondeau wore a custom-designed bridal gown by Eva Bouskila, while Attal complemented her look in a classic navy blue suit. The newlyweds arrived at the ceremony in a vintage Porsche 356 Speedster before exchanging vows against the iconic backdrop of the Eiffel Tower.

Blondeau has been in the spotlight for most of her life. She started modeling at the age of four and has enjoyed a successful fashion career, walking the runway for Dolce & Gabbana during Milan Fashion Week at only 17, and later becoming a L’Oréal brand ambassador and face of a Lolita Lempicka fragrance, solidifying her status as one of France’s most recognizable fashion stars.

Congratulations to the newlyweds.
