From the success of “HPI” to the difficulties of making ends meet. Cypriane Gardin, who played Théa, the eldest daughter of the character played by Audrey Fleurot in the TF1 series, revealed Thursday on Instagram that she was in a very precarious financial situation.
“They’re going to cut off my electricity,” confides the 26-year-old actress in a video. Currently without a contract, she explains that she has reached the end of her unemployment benefits. She also assures that her status as an intermittent performer does not allow her to receive RSA and that her request for an extension of her compensation was refused.
However, the young actress says she continues to go to castings in the hope of quickly finding work. “I know it will start again,” she wants to believe. But the emergency is immediate: she explains that three people usually depend on her income and that she is no longer able to meet her bills. For lack of any other solution, she opened an online fundraiser to “get through” this difficult month.
This approach earned him sometimes severe reactions. Some Internet users suggest that he look for a job outside the artistic world, particularly in sectors that struggle to recruit. “When you want to feed your children, you work… it’s as simple as that,” a subscriber criticizes him.
But Cypriane Gardin also received many messages of support. Internet users salute her courage in publicly exposing her difficulties, while others are surprised that an actress who participated in such a popular series could find herself in such a situation. Solidarity quickly materialized: his prize pool had already exceeded 2,965 euros.
