Meet Carlos O’Connell, Joséphine de La Baume’s Partner & Baby’s Father
Carlos O’Connell first met Joséphine de La Baume in 2020, thanks to their common profession. Immediately, falling in love with each other, the musical then officially started dating and even walked several red carpets together.
Only in 2022, the couple attended the premiere of “Anatomy of a Scandal” and also the Cosmos event by Kate Moss.
Now, as of December 2022, the couple is pregnant with their first child. News of their pregnancy first came via Carlos’s IG where Joséphine showed off her bump in a stunning maternity shoot for L’Officiel magazine. The post was captioned, “Blessed with a year of surprise and beauty. next: chapter 1.”
Before Carlos, Joséphine was married to Mark Ronson for 5 years. The former couple tied the knot in 2011 in Aix en Provence, in the South of France. Unfortunately, their marriage ended in 2018, a year after they filed for divorce citing irreconcilable differences as the reason for their separation.
After their breakup, while Joséphine continued her relationship with Carlos, Mark moved in with Grace Gummer. The DJ proposed to daughter Meryl Streep in May 2021, and they exchanged vows in August of the same year.
Just 2 months before Carlos and Joséphine announced their pregnancy, Mark and Grace also confirmed their pregnancy at W Magazine’s 50th anniversary party in New York.
The Carlos O’Connell era
Carlos O’Connell was born back in 1994. That will make him 28 years old in 2022.
Also, she would be 10 years younger than her baby mama Joséphine if that were true.
Is Carlos O’Connell Spanish?
Yes, Carlos O’Connell is Spanish. He grew up in Spain, in Madrid, in a family with both Spanish and Irish culture. “In the house, there was a mixed upbringing, all Irish traditions, and all Spanish,” he explained.
Apparently Carlos goes to school in Spain but also goes to Ireland every year. So, even though he is Spanish, he feels more connected to the Irish. But it’s not just because of his roots but also because he feels the Irish have a deep appreciation for music, “more so than your generic Spanish family,” he says.
Comparing the two cultures again, he said, “There is no kind of value for art in Spain in that way, anymore. Music is what I’ve been doing since I was a kid, and I got to explore my Irish roots. As soon as I turned 18 I left Madrid and went to Dublin. It all worked out, I guess.”
Carlos now doesn’t speak Spanish at all, he has a very Irish accent. However, he adopted more Spanish sounds when he moved to Spain. And it still comes out when he drinks too much. “And now it’s strange when I speak in Spanish; English vowels have crept into my Spanish. It took me a few weeks to adapt to the language when I came to Spain,” he explained.
Also, because of his accent, people assumed that he was Irish.
The Carlos O’Connell family
Carlos O’Connell comes from a family of at least four people. His father, Carlos is from Spain, and his mother is from Dublin.
According to the star, his parents met after his mother moved to Spain in her 20s, trying to find work. Afterwards, the two fell in love, married, and raised Carlos and his siblings in the country.
What is Carlos O’Connell’s Net Worth?
Carlos O’Connell projected a net worth of over $1 million in 2022 — all thanks to his music career.
Looking back, Carlos met Conor Curley, Conor Deegan, Grian Chatten, and Tom Coll met in Dublin while attending the British Institute of Modern Music. Initially bonded over a love of poetry, the group formed a band called Fontaines DC in 2017 and began releasing their own singles and performing live regularly.
Within 2 years, the band then released their album, Dogrel, which went on to be listed as Album of the Year on record store Rough Trade’s website, voted Album of the Year by presenters on BBC Radio 6 Music, and nominated for both the Mercury Prize and the Music Prize Options.
So, what makes Fontaines DC special? According to Carlos, their approach to making music is comparable to the art of sushi. He said, “To make good food you have to eat good food. You have to develop a taste that is better than the taste of the customer.” Likewise, they have refined their tastes over the years and will continue to do so.
Most of their early songs were inspired by their hometown of Dublin. But now that they live in Longdon, their experience of strangeness and isolation has seeped into the music.
If you are interested, their next show will be at “NGAIO MARSH THEATRE, CHRISTCHURCH” in New Zealand on 27 Jan 2023. Or you can find them at “ROUNDHOUSE, SYDNEY” in Australia on 2 Jan 2023.
