Melissa shares her sons, Raphaël, nine, and Solal, seven, with her ex-partner Jean-David Blanc, a French entrepreneur.
Due to a custody arrangement, their children can’t leave France with their mother without their father’s consent, which means she is now based in Paris.
Notoriously private Melissa hasn’t revealed if she is in a relationship or who the father of her baby is.
She was previously married to Chilean furniture designer and film director Claudio Dabed from 2000 to 2011.
