Melissa George shares a cryptic post about 'single mothers'

She became embroiled in a dispute with her ex-partner Jean David Blanc over the custody of their two sons – Raphaël, four, and Solal, two – following their split in 2016.

And on Thursday, Australian actress Melissa George, 41, posted an inspirational message to Instagram about ‘single mothers’.

She wrote: ‘Single mummas… there will always be support and love and father figures where you least expect. Taken today with my sons.’

Melissa accompanied her post with a black and white photograph of her son’s hands pressed against the hands of an unknown male.

Addressing her highly-publicised custody dispute, the 41-year-old told Whimn last year: ‘My heart is with my children and that’s where I have to be right now.

‘I have the personality where I make the most of everywhere I am. I don’t want to live being forced to stay somewhere and not really maximising any element of joy in that place.’

Melissa also told Vogue last month: ‘It’s almost like when life beats you down, you get more humble, more calm, reflective. There’s peace in it. So I’m looking forward to the next chapter. Maybe love.’

In early 2017, Melissa and French entrepreneur Jean David Blanc were convicted of assaulting each other following an alleged domestic dispute in 2016.

Jean David later said in a statement: ‘Regarding the supposed violence against Melissa George, I strongly contest it and have thus filed an appeal against the judgment, which is not final.’

STATEMENT FROM JEAN-DAVID BLANC

I wish to answer once and for all to the inaccurate information given by Melissa George.

The Paris’ Court decision consisting of a shared custody of our young children was based on very long and various social workers investigations as well as psychologic examinations.

This decision was ruled by the Judge who considered only the best interest of our children. That does not prevent Mrs George from working, as she’s free to come and go to sets all over the world as she always did.

As regards to our children’s interdiction to leave French territory without my prior authorization, this decision, also ruled by the Judge, is the result of Melissa George’s attempt to secretly leave the country with our children without my consent … Regarding the supposed violence against Melissa George, I strongly contest it and have thus filed an appeal against the judgment, which is not final.

I have always maintained that I had been attacked first and was only trying to protect myself. Melissa George was found guilty and charged for these offences.

During an interview with Sunday Night in March, Melissa claimed Jean had become emotionally and physically abusive during their five year relationship- allegations he strongly denies.

The AlloCiné founder first met Melissa in 2011 at a BAFTA after-party. They began a relationship in 2012.

The former couple welcomed their first child, son Raphaël, in February 2014 and a second son, Solal, in November 2015.

Melissa was previously married to Chilean film director Claudio Dabed.
