They had not seen each other since the election of Miss France, in Montpellier, france, last December. Alicia Aylies has (finally !) able to see his father, on their native lands of Martinique. And tell him about his first few months of Miss France. Emotion.

During an hour and a half, he was pacing in the arrivals hall of the airport Aimé Césaire of Fort de France. Philippe Aylies, the dad of Alicia, had been so eager to find ” his ” Miss France 2017 ! He was informed on his arrival time and is looking forward to the idea to surprise her… Unfortunately, ” the airplane has been a lot of delay and, in the hubbub, after a very long awaited, it was thought that we were taken out by a back door “, says the lady, flattered by the attention, the day after the missed appointment. He smiled, disappointed but not vengeful. On the beach of the hotel La Batelière, in the town of Schoelcher, where (strange coincidence) lives precisely Philippe – they are happy to be reunited, and that is the main. It shows in their looks, their gestures. Between the Miss Guyana became Miss France in December 2016, and his father, the complicity is not in doubt. Even if she has spent almost half of his life to love him ” at a distance “.

Alicia was two years old when his parents separated. Ten when her mother, Marie-Chantal (she also Martinique origin), has found work has Cayenne and decided to take his only daughter, no offense to Philippe, who was forced to accept. “It was a difficult time because, even if I came back to spend all the summers in Martinique, we did not see more than one to two times per year,” says the brunette. “Even a little more if, by chance, a fencing competition (a sport that the young woman has practiced intensively between 4 and 16 years old, editor’s note) you brought by here or in Guadeloupe, where I could make myself more easily,” adds his father. The times have not so changed. “With his obligations, his travel, it is not always easy to reach. But we send each other text messages, we try to keep current, ” explains Philippe Aylies. They know all the two : this is not in the course of this short stay bound to Miss that they will have the leisure to recount in detail all of the events that have occurred in recent months.

Alicia did not have the chance to see her best friend, Jessie. By special delegation on the occasion of the election of regional of the new Miss Martinique, future contender for the title of Miss France, Alicia has a job-time minister. Meetings, interviews, photo sessions, autograph sessions, rehearsals of the gala, which it presents with its dauphine, Miss Guadeloupe, Lorraine and Brittany… That’s not a problem !
