Brigitte Bardot Has Been Married Four Times: Meet Her Husbands Brigitte Bardot, Gunter Sachs, Jacques Charrier & Roger Vadim

Bardot’s personal life has been as much in the spotlight as her career. She has been married four times and has had numerous high-profile relationships.

Brigitte Bardot’s first marriage was to director Roger Vadim in 1952, which ended in 1957. Bardot then had relationships with Jean-Louis Trintignant, Jacques Charrier (with whom she had her only child, Nicolas-Jacques Charrier), and German millionaire Gunter Sachs, among others.

Bardot’s current husband is Bernard d’Ormale, a former adviser to far-right politician Jean-Marie Le Pen, and they have been married since 1992.

Bardot’s legacy as an icon of the 1950s and 1960s remains strong. She is credited with popularizing the bikini, the Bardot neckline, and the “choucroute” hairstyle.

Bardot’s influence extended to fashion, where she became a muse for designers like Dior and Balmain, and she was immortalized in art by figures such as Andy Warhol. Bardot’s image and style have inspired countless women, including celebrities like Claudia Schiffer, Kate Moss, and Scarlett Johansson.

Brigitte Bardot was also the model for the bust of Marianne, the national emblem of France, in the late 1960s. Bardot’s cultural impact is also evident in the places she popularized, such as St. Tropez and Armação dos Búzios in Brazil.
