Life before fame
Adèle Exarchopoulos is born on November 22, 1993, in Paris, France to parents Didier Exarchopoulos and Marina Niquet. Her paternal grandfather, being a full-blooded Greek, made her a proud descendant of the Hellenes.

As a child, Adèle was raised in the lovely neighborhood of 19th arrondissement of Paris, near the Place des Fêtes. This is also where her love for acting first budded and bloomed into a full-time, successful profession.

Her acting career is a stray from the nature of her parents’ works. Her father is a guitar teacher while her mother is a nurse. Nonetheless, Adèle’s passion is fully supported by both parents. In fact, they were the ones who sent her to acting school at the age of nine to help her overcome her bashfulness. And as Adèle once told the French newspaper L’Express, she took and thrive in these lessons due to her fondness for disguise.

Acting and watching movies have been a major part of her life ever since. Fortunately, it paid off⁠—big time.
