Michelle Yeoh and Jean Todt: “Every day should be a festival”

Michelle Yeoh (63) spoke about the secret of her marriage to Jean Todt (79). The couple married in July 2023 after a 19-year engagement period.

The Oscar winner and the former Ferrari CEO celebrated their second wedding anniversary on July 27th. The couple got to know each other in Shanghai in June 2004 and got started a month later. The two then took a lot of time until the marriage. “We have been together for 21 years and have been married for two years,” Michelle Yeoh summarized towards the US magazine “People”. “We always say: ‘Every day should be a festival.’ Why are we waiting for a special day? “

In addition, she is “so happy” that he always supports her and has no problem with the fact that she is traveling a lot. “I love my work. This is my passion. He never turns around and says you spend a lot of time without me what happens to me sometimes, but it is very understanding.”

She also referred to him as a “romantic” and added: “He doesn’t count after years. He tells me that we have been together for 7,000 days. And if I really ask him, he will give me hours and minutes.” The use of numbers to mark your love time line is quite suitable, since in your wedding program it was also exactly given how long they were engaged before they closed the covenant for life. “Today, after 6,992 days, on July 27, 2023 in Geneva, surrounded by loving families and friends, we are so happy to celebrate this special moment together,” it said.
