French Actor Gérard Lanvin Reveals Luxurious Marrakech Villa: A Slice of Paradise

Gérard Lanvin owns a "paradise house, surrounded by a magnificent plot of land," the actor described in the columns of Journal de la Maison on October 2, 2024. "There, our house with land, a vegetable garden, and chickens is worth the price of 2 m² in Paris," he also specified to Télé-Star in 2022. Between Gérard Lanvin and Morocco, it’s a love story that has lasted for many years. "People smile. I love the smells, cycling in the countryside, and the sun is good for morale, skin, as well as knees and shoulders, where I’m starting to feel pain. Normal at 71!" he confided. He has settled in the kingdom, but he continues to work in France.

A few years ago, Lanvin was criticized for his choice to settle in Morocco, some seeing it as a way to evade his tax obligations. In May 2021, he responded to the criticism. "I was told that I was speaking out while living in Morocco and not paying taxes. I don’t live in Morocco, I live between Morocco and France because we need warmth, we’re people from the south," he first explained. "When I work, I’m in France, so I pay my taxes in France," he assured.
