CHILDREN OF PERNAUT. Died on March 2, 2022, Jean-Pierre Pernaut leaves four children (and three grandchildren), whom he had with two different women. From Julia to Tom, the youngest, family portrait of the former JT star.
The death of Jean-Pierre Pernaut was announced on Wednesday March 2, 2022. The former star of TF1 JT leaves four children, whom he had with two different women, Dominique Bonnet and the former miss France Nathalie Markay. It was in 1978 that Jean-Pierre Pernaut became the father for the first time, of a little girl named Julia. Wink of fate or filiation, it is in Amiens, stronghold of “JPP” that Julia Pernaut chose to practice as a gynecologist. Julia Pernaut made the journalist a fulfilled grandfather since she gave birth to two children, two girls named Iris and Eléa.
In 1983, Olivier Pernaut joined the family. The young man quickly shared a passion with his father, the automobile and motorsport, a center of interest that Jean-Pierre Pernaut said he himself had drawn from his father, an ex-pilot, co-founder of an automobile- club in Picardy and former track marshal at the famous 24 Hours of Le Mans. Olivier and Jean-Pierre Pernaut even shared the wheel of a racing car during the Andros Trophy on ice. Olivier Pernaut also had a son, named Léon, making Jean-Pierre Pernaut a fulfilled triple grandfather, as he confided in 2016 to Paris-Match magazine.
From his meeting with Nathalie Marquay in 2002, will also be born two children, Lou and Tom born in 2002 and 2003. At 19, Lou Pernaut is particularly present on Instagram where she is followed by more than 140,000 people and where she posed regularly with his father. “Becoming a father again at 52 and then at 53 turned my life upside down, Jean-Pierre Pernaut had slipped in Paris-Match. “I often accompany Lou to judo and Tom to tennis. Fatherhood over 50, I thought that was unreasonable. I was wrong”. Jean-Pierre Pernaut also admitted at that time that he did not devote as much time to them as he would have liked: “I have a large family that I do not see often enough for my taste”. Getting closer of his family, changing pace had been at the origin of his decision to leave the news of 13 Hours of TF1 at the end of the year 2020.
