The Dark Knight Rises actress, 49, and the French film director, 52, announced their separation to the Agence France-Presse news agency, saying the purpose of their statement was 'to avoid all speculation, rumors and risky interpretations,' Associated Press reported Friday, June 27. Without citing a reason for the breakup, the former French couple said they were separating by 'common accord' and with 'mutual goodwill.' PEOPLE was unable to reach Canet for a statement, and reps for Cotillard did not immediately respond to requests for comment. Cotillard and Canet starred opposite one another in 2003's Love Me If You Dare and began dating in 2007. On May 19, 2011, they welcomed their first child, a son named Marcel. In March 2017, her reps confirmed to PEOPLE that Cotillard and Canet recently had a second child, a baby girl. Cotillard's role as French singer Edith Piaf in La Vie en Rose earned her an Academy Award in 2008. She and Canet both worked with Leonardo DiCaprio — Cotillard as the Titanic alum's love interest in 2010's Inception, while Canet, who is also an actor, had a role in 2000's The Beach. Cotillard also starred opposite Brad Pitt in the World War II romantic thriller Allied. Their working relationship on the film sparked rumors of an alleged affair that preceded his divorce from Angelina Jolie. While pregnant with her second child, The Morning Show actress denied the rumors in a public statement shared to her Instagram account. 'This is going to be my first and only reaction to the whirlwind news that broke 24 hours ago and that I was swept up into," she captioned her photo. "I am not used to commenting on things like this nor taking them seriously but as this situation is spiraling and affecting people I love, I have to speak up.' 'Firstly, many years ago, I met the man of my life, father of our son and of the baby we are expecting,' Cotillard wrote, referring to Canet, adding, 'He is my love, my best friend, the only one that I need.'

Juliette Binoche claims Gerard Depardieu is 'not a monster' after guilty verdict
Juliette Binoche has said Gerard Depardieu is 'not a monster' after he was found guilty of sexual assault yesterday. Binoche, a 61-year-old prominent French actress, made the comment at the Cannes Film Festival on the same day a court in Paris found Depardieu, 76, guilty of sexually assaulting two different women on a film set in 2021. Depardieu had repeatedly denied all allegations made against him, but Judge Thierry Donard was unconvinced by Depardieu and his legal team. The public prosecutor has asked the court to hand Depardieu a suspended 18-month prison sentence and a 20,000 euro fine (£16,811). However, it seems the giant of French cinema still has some supporters in the industry. 'He's not a monster,' Binoche, who is also the president of the jury of the 78th Cannes Film Festival, told The Guardian on the opening night of the event. 'He's a man who lost his aura owing to facts that occurred and were looked at by a court. The star of a film is a king for me. [But] what is sacred is when you create, when you act, and he is no longer sacred … Now the power lies elsewhere.' It was conspicuous timing for the most-lauded French actor of a generation to face conviction on the opening day of France's most iconic film festival. Depardieu's trial was a significant topic of conversation among guests as the event kicked off, especially given that Cannes once welcomed men like Depardieu and Harvey Weinstein. Binoche, however, insisted to The Guardian that the #MeToo movement had a positive impact on the event, saying that organisers have a newfound awareness of how to help victims of sexual abuse seek justice. She also said that while the #MeToo movement came to America before France, it has finally made its way through her home country. She called it an 'important time' in France. Iconic actress Brigitte Bardot also spoke out in Depardieu's defense on Monday. In a rare interview, the 90-year-old bemoaned how 'talented people who touch the buttocks of a girl are consigned to the deepest dungeon.' 'Feminism isn't my thing,' she said. 'Personally, I like men.' The court found that one of Depardieu's victims, a set designer named Amélie, had given consistent evidence while the actor's accounts had changed repeatedly. He has also been convicted of assaulting an assistant director identified as a woman named Sarah. Amélie told the court that after a disagreement with Depardieu, he caught her between his legs and held her by the hips before touching her buttocks, genitals, and breasts while muttering obscenities. Sarah said the actor touched her rear and breasts through her clothes on three separate occasions. The La Vie En Rose star denied all the allegations, saying that he might have touched the women accidentally or to keep his balance, but not intentionally. The assaults took place in September 2021 on the set of a film called Les Volets Verts (The Green Shutters) in which Depardieu plays an aging actor. Depardieu was working on a film set in the Azores at the time of the verdict reading, so he was absent from the courtroom. At the end of the hearing in Paris in late March, prosecutor Laurent Guy said: 'It's perfectly possible to be an excellent actor and a great father – and still commit a crime. 'You are not here to pass judgment on French cinema. You are here to judge Gérard Depardieu, just as you would any other citizen.' This was Depardieu's first trial on sexual assault charges, but several other alleged victims have made similar claims in the media against the actor. Additionally, an alleged rape case against Depardieu could come to trial in the future. At the end of the hearings, Depardieu said: 'My name has been dragged through the mud by lies and insults. 'A trial can be a very special experience for an actor. Seeing all this anger, the police, the press. It's like being in a science fiction film, except it's not science fiction. It's life.' He also said: 'These lessons may be an inspiration for me one day if I get to play a lawyer.' Depardieu also told the court he was not the 'vulgar, rude, trashy person who makes fun of people' that he has been portrayed as in the course of the trial. 'I respect people. I like to help people,' he said. From the time Depardieu was accused initially, it was evident that the trial went beyond two sexual assaults involving one of France's most celebrated film stars. What unfolded in the courtroom became part of a much-needed reckoning with the country's fixation on the sensual, its unquestioning reverence for artists, and the slow progress of the #MeToo movement in France. While this was the first case brought against Depardieu to go to trial, more than 20 women have accused him of sexual abuse, primarily by speaking to French news outlets like Mediapart. Six of these accusers have taken legal action, but two of the cases were dropped because they were past the statute of limitations. More Trending Depardieu is one of France's most acclaimed actors and a cornerstone of the country's cinema industry. Rising to prominence in the 1970s with films like Les Valseuses and 1900, he became an international star with performances in Cyrano de Bergerac, Green Card, and The Last Metro. The versatile movie star has served as muse to legendary directors such as François Truffaut, Bernardo Bertolucci, and Jean-Luc Godard and starred in over 230 films over five decades. Got a story?

The best Met Gala after party transformations
More joyful was Jenner's after party look, raided from the archives of Thierry Mugler. The black mini-dress came from Mugler's autumn 1999 La Vie En Rose collection, with a tilted hat adding extra drama. Jenner has become a fan of Mugler's work for unwinding, wearing a black lace dress from the designer's 1992 collection to the Vanity Fair Oscars after party. Sabrina Carpenter Singer Carpenter finally found some pants at A$AP Rocky's after party after joining Lisa in the Met Gala's pantless trend earlier in the evening. Carpenter changed out of a burgundy tuxedo, bodysuit and platform heels from the Met Gala's sponsor Louis Vuitton, persisting with the showgirl aesthetic she refined in her appropriately named Short n' Sweet tour. For the after party, Carpenter's statement yellow coat was adorned with oversized LV logos, and worn over a white shirt, black tie and sensible trousers. The after party ensemble seemed a more fitting tribute to the Met Gala exhibition theme, Superfine: Tailoring Black Style. Heidi Klum At first glance, German supermodel Klum's Met Gala look appeared to be an example of looking pretty first and following the theme second. On closer inspection the strapless dress from Vetements creative director Guram Gvasalia, was made from suit fabric. Klum also managed to tie in a timely reference with the fabric, from 1978, having been sourced from a supplier to the Vatican. There were no religious associations with Klum's after party look, one of the few designed for the dance floor rather than the red carpet. Klum chose leather pants with a matching jacket from Vetements, and a white singlet perfect for raising your arms in the air when the beat drops. Jenna Ortega Actor Jenna Ortega can be excused for changing into a more comfortable Balmain bodysuit for the Met Gala after parties wearing a dress made from metal rulers to the official event. Designer Olivier Rousteing was inspired by the art of tailoring tape and rulers for the bustier gown.
