And the mr?

There's a difference between private and reclusive. Alizée doesn't have the option of being a recluse. She's a performer. That's her career. If she's going to be a success at it, then she has to be famous. There's just no alternative.

Jérémy has not performed on stage or TV or any such thing in years. There's no sign that he has any desire to. In interviews, Alizée has actually stated that he doesn't. This would of course rule out his performing for Les Enfoires or anything else. She's also said that she has no interest in doing a duet with him, over and above him not wanting to perform in the first place. It's simply not going to happen.

Not only that, but if his motive is to avoid fame, then he has to play down his association with Alizée as well as far as the public is concerned. As I said, she has to be famous; there's no option, and if the public keeps getting reminded that he's her husband, then he will be famous, too, which he doesn't want. Of course everyone knows, but there's a difference between knowing and being constantly reminded.

I have a very strong suspicion bordering on certainty that this was a source of friction between them during the Psychédélices promotion, when he was a composer and co-producer for her and also helped manage the Mexico concert tour. I suspect that this is why he has had no visible role in her career since then.

Anyway, what it comes down to is that the fact that they're not photographed together or seen in public together is what we should expect, and it doesn't really mean anything.
