Reno ready to wed
Thursday 27th July 2006, 16:05
Jean Reno, star of the Da Vinci Code and Leon, is set to marry his elegant girlfriend, the model Zofia Borucka, this Saturday. The soon-to-be Mrs Reno, 23 years the junior of her partner, will say "I do" in a glittering ceremony in the south of France.
Stars of the French musical and political worlds are set to attend the wedding in Baux-de-Provence, an historic village built on a dramatic rock formation to the north of Marseille.
Johnny Hallyday, one of France's most popular singers, and French minister Nicolas Sarkozy, both friends of the revered actor, will be witnesses to the celebrity union.
The event will be presided over by local dignitary Mayor Jouve, who Reno has befriended since buying a property nearby.
The two men recently watched the World Cup final together, where France narrowly missed repeating their dramatic victory of eight years ago.
Reno will hope that his own day in the spotlight finishes without such disappointment.
The couple's honeymoon location remains a secret, though it is known that there will be cause for a double celebration – Reno turns 58 the next day.
