Sarkozy Daughter Bakes Support for Father’s Prison Memoir
Four days before teh release of former French President Nicolas Sarkozy’s account of his imprisonment, his 14-year-old daughter, Giulia Sarkozy, publicly displayed her support with a pointedly decorated cake. On Friday, December 5, Giulia posted a photo too her Instagram account of a thick slice of chocolate cake bearing the message “The diary of a prisoner” and the signature “Sarko Family,” written in beige choux pastry.
The gesture arrives as Sarkozy prepares for the bookstore launch of “A Prisoner’s Diary” on December 10, published by Fayard, detailing his 20 days behind bars following a conviction in the “Libyan” affair. The book and its release have drawn significant attention, and giulia’s cake is a visible presentation of familial solidarity during a challenging period. Her post, captioned “Capable girl?”-a phrase popular among younger generations to express thoughtfulness-has resonated online, with mother carla Bruni also sharing the image on her instagram account.
Sarkozy was released from prison on November 10, supported throughout the legal proceedings by Bruni, who attended press conferences and court appearances. The former President’s children, including Giulia, have also shown concern for their father’s well-being. The cake’s inscription directly references Sarkozy’s forthcoming book, signaling a family united in navigating the aftermath of his conviction and anticipating the public response to his memoir.
