Gaspard Ulliel’s Son Grown Up: Gaelle Pietri Shares Special Occasion Photo

Gaëlle Pietri, the former partner of the late actor Gaspard Ulliel, recently celebrated a special occasion: the 10th birthday of their son, Orso. On January 12, 2023, she took to Instagram to commemorate this milestone with heartfelt messages and cherished images.

Gaspard Ulliel’s Untimely Passing

Gaspard Ulliel tragically passed away on January 19, 2022, at the age of 37. The acclaimed actor suffered fatal injuries from a skiing accident in La Rosière, Savoie. He collided with another skier at a ski cross intersection.

Growing Up Without His Father

Since Ulliel’s passing, Gaëlle Pietri has been raising Orso alone. They were together from 2013 to 2020, sharing a life filled with love and memories. Despite the challenges, Gaëlle has remained resilient in nurturing their son.

A Special Birthday Celebration

On Orso’s 10th birthday, Gaëlle shared several images of him, carefully choosing to show him from behind to protect his identity. She lovingly captioned the post:

  • “Happy birthday to the love of my life. For ten years, your humor, intelligence, and strength have brightened my days.”
  • “You are my greatest joy and the best travel companion I could hope for.”

Dealing with Grief

In a recent interview, Gaëlle reflected on the complexities of Orso’s grief. She revealed that the first year was particularly difficult for him. Orso experienced significant anger over losing his father, especially during key moments such as holidays and birthdays.

To cope with her own pain, Gaëlle engaged in writing. She published a book, Le temps de te dire adieu, on April 26, 2023, which details her experiences following Gaspard’s death and her journey through grief.

As they continue to navigate life without Gaspard Ulliel, both Gaëlle and Orso are finding their way, cherishing memories and creating new ones together.
