Davy Sardou’s New Role in Plus belle la vie, encore plus belle
Following the gripping storyline about Abdel’s death, the hit show Plus belle la vie, encore plus belle on TF1 shifts focus to Pascal, played by Davy Sardou. Pascal is a serious-looking nurse with a peculiar sense of style—one that Sardou himself humorously admits he wouldn’t adopt. However, beneath his professional demeanor lies a darker, more complex character. According to the actor, Pascal arrives alone in Marseille with no known acquaintances, setting the stage for a mysterious and intriguing storyline.

Davy Sardou, a familiar face in French entertainment, has devoted most of his recent years to the theater. He also carries a renowned lineage—being the son of legendary singer Michel Sardou and Elisabeth Haas, the stepson of Anne-Marie Périer, and the brother of Romain Sardou. While fans know him well, many might not be aware of his past connection to an actress currently appearing in another TF1 drama.
The Unexpected Connection Between Plus belle la vie and Demain nous appartient
Davy Sardou and Noémie Elbaz first met in 2006 while performing in the play Arsenic et vieilles dentelles. Their relationship blossomed on stage, and as Sardou fondly recalls, their first meeting coincided with his birthday—June 1st. Actress Micheline Dax played a pivotal role in bringing them together, acting as a supportive witness to their budding romance.

The couple tied the knot on June 27, 2011, and later welcomed their daughter, Lucie, on June 13, 2013. However, after nearly a decade together, they parted ways in 2018.
In an unexpected twist, both actors now find themselves starring in two different TF1 dramas at the same time. Davy Sardou plays Pascal in Plus belle la vie, encore plus belle, while Noémie Elbaz takes on the role of Agnès in Demain nous appartient. Despite their shared history, Sardou insists that this was purely coincidental, stating, “It’s a complete coincidence because she started before me. I know she joined the series not long ago and is very happy to be working on a daily drama.”
