On Tuesday, May 17, Laury Thilleman and Juan Arbelaez announced their separation. But a question arises: what will happen to their joint restaurant, Vida?
It is an announcement that surprised. “After seven years of intense happiness and living together at a thousand miles an hour, Juan and I decide together to continue our routes separately“, announced Laury Thilleman this Tuesday, May 17. If neither of them detailed the reasons for their breakup, However, they leave each other on good terms.. “The tenderness, benevolence, gratitude and mutual respect that we share remain and will remain intact.“, affirmed Laury Thilleman, thanking Juan Arbelaez for having “brightened up [sa] life of a thousand colors and will always have a place in [son] heart“. Same story on the side of Juan Arbelaez, who not “will keep in mind only bright memoriesof their idyll.
An intelligence of heart that will undoubtedly allow the ex-spouses to continue to work together. If they had no children, Miss France 2011 and the chef with multiple restaurants were teeming with projects. The latest? A television program around “the van we built with Juan, our house on wheels“, revealed Laury Thilleman last March. Above all, they already have a business in common. In 2018, the two lovers launched Vida, a Parisian restaurant. “With Juan, we wanted a place that looked like us and so it was obvious to open this healthy canteen.. At Vida, nature takes back its rights, in the products first! They are seasonal, good, natural and respected in the way they are worked. We have therefore made this space a place of life, sunny and green, intimate and friendly.“, explained the main interested party on her blog in 2020.
Why the separation of Laury Thilleman and Juan Arbelaez should have no impact on Vida
Will their breakup reshuffle the cards? Juan Arbelaez and Laury Thilleman will they continue to collaborate together? Will one sell its shares to the other? Are they going to sell this establishment located in the 10th arrondissement? After four years of existence, Vida does not seem to be in danger. Especially since with all his restaurants, Juan Arbelaez probably only has to pass through the kitchens of Vida, being certainly more involved in the development of the menu and the creation of dishes than in the kitchen. On a daily basis, he can count on Tania Cadeddu – candidate for this thirteenth season of Top chef – to keep the stoves running, since she’s Vida’s chef. There is therefore no doubt that the separation of the two owners will have no impact on the life of the restaurant.
