Vincent and Kim ššš¦š¦¢
It was a mystery to me how I came across Vincent shortly after Christmas in 2020, completely unaware that he was a famous film star. His humility led me to think he was an arts graduate, mistakenly. His charm, intelligence, sense of humour, and good looks captivated me.
With a dual background in Computer Science (BSc) and Law (Postgraduate Diploma in Law (PGDL) and a Master of Laws in Criminal Justice (LLM)), and raised in a family of professional engineers - my father a university professor of engineering and my mother an electrical engineer- I was intrigued to meet someone from the arts world for the first time. However, I never anticipated the extraordinary journey that lay ahead. Despite Vincent's wise warning, "I am quite high-profile, so expect a little backlash." Ā I was surprised by the intense interest women showed in Vincent. Their words and actions revealed a troubling mix of jealousy and spite.
Our first Cyber-Date ššš¦š¦¢

VincentĀ asked me to draw him, but unfortunately, my artistic skills in drawing men are lacking. However, I did manage to capture his essence by portraying him as a bird wearing aĀ red neckerchief and blue fleece, inspired by Vincentās stylish skiing outfit. Vincent affectionately named this avian creation "Gentlyā. He then suggested that Gently needed a friend, so he invented a female companion for him, named "Little."
Gently and Little (GL) are Vincent's Superfans.

Gently Lebird is a heroic and determined character in his own story, strategically planning every move to achieve his dreams. Coming from the French Alps, he is an avid skier and a devoted follower of @Vincent_Lecoeur. Gently's red neckerchief and blue fleece are inspired by Vincent's stylish skiing attire.Ā In contrast, Little Bobbin, coming from the English Midlands, is a mysterious character with a unique personality. While Gently is an avid skier, Little prefers leisurely walks.
Ā
One day, while strolling through a local park, Little stumbled upon a place called Cyberland. Suddenly, a group of nasty trolls, each differing in shape and size, pounced on her. Fortunately, Gently came to her aid, and together they fought off the trolls. They told the trolls to mind their own business and sent them packing! Much like nasty viruses, the trolls always returned in different variants. However, unlike viruses, trolls are not immortal.
Ā
Gently & Little have become inseparable Lebirds and live happily ever after in ForeverLand!

Birthday presents ššš¦š¦¢
Ā
Instead of knitting or baking, I spent many sleepless nights creating a website as a birthday surprise for Vincent. His joy upon receiving it brings me profound happiness.
Ā
On my birthday, when we first met, Vincent gifted me a collection of photographs of the French Alps. He spent several days climbing to the mountain tops to capture those images. Another year, for my birthday, Vincent dedicated months to creating beautiful artworks inspired by the scenery of the French RhƓne-Alpes.
Vincent 's Proposal ššš¦š¦¢
Ā
When Vincent popped the Birdy question, I said "yes" without further thought.
Vincentās first book, āLe Journal Journalistique,ā was published to celebrate this occasion.

Our future ššš¦š¦¢
Ā
In 2026, Vincent co-directed and co-produced the film "Ć Bicyclette," which was nominated for a French CĆ©sar Award. That same year, he retired from acting to be with me. Just like Gently and Little, we hope our new life will be simple, and that we will live happily ever after in our āquietā little corner(s)!
