Cecile Cassel: “To me she’s just Monica”

From a recent interview to Italian magazine GRAZIA:

“But I knew her from before, when she was a model and even today to me she’s just Monica, my brother’s wife. I don’t think of her as a diva. Our family life hasn’t changed since then, I mean our dinners, our reunions, our quarrels and problems are always the same. She’s my sister-in-law [she says it in Italian, 'cognata']. You know, family for you Italian people is very important, just as it is for us French people: you can imagine how important it can be when a French man marries an Italian woman.”
