Eva Ionesco: Being taken advantage of by her biological mother, "forced" on the cover of "playboy", life is like hell

Eva Ionesco (born July 18, 1965 in Paris) is a French actress and model. Her mother is the famous photographer Irina Ionesco, famous in the 1970s for her sensitive photos, especially those of her daughter, which caused great controversy.

These photos appeared in many publications, including the European edition of Playboy and Penthouse.

In 2012, Eva filed a lawsuit against her mother for taking sensitive photos of her as a child. Eva Ionesco, through her lawyer Jacques-Georges Bitoun, alleges that her mother "stealed her childhood" leaving her "emotionally disturbed".

"My mother started taking pictures of me when I was 4 years old, with my legs spread wide, with a half-eaten apple on the wall in the background. I was so young that I completely forgot that I had taken such a picture. This image took 15 years to forget," Eva Ironisco shared.

Lawyer Jacques-Georges Bitoun also expressed anger, saying that the 1970s was a period of widespread child abuse: "How can a woman force her four-year-old daughter to spread her legs? in front of the camera if art is to take a picture of a child in such a pose, i really don't understand art the child is never seen as a child but like a prostitute in disguise ".

Eva has often lived at her grandfather's house since she was born because her mother is rarely at home. That's why she longed for motherly love. Little Eva Ionesco didn't know anything at first, thinking that as long as she listened to her mother's words, she would be happy.

To receive the reward and praise of her mother, Eva Ionesco worked hard to pose in front of the camera with strange movements, because she knew that if she did not do well, she would be abandoned again. Eva wants to be with her mother, though not as a daughter but only as her perfect "model".

But as she grew up, Eva gradually understood what her mother forced her to do, she felt ashamed, tried to resist, but her mother always took family affection as a condition to force her. Eva also gradually compromises and says "I love you" to her mother. However, this motherly love was ultimately ruined by Irina Ionesco herself.

Faced with her mother's increasingly outrageous demands, Eva finally took her mother to court when she was 12 years old. Eva has filed a lawsuit in court 3 times, denouncing her mother. In 1998, French police confiscated hundreds of photos at Irina Ionesco's workplace - where Eva, when she was 5 years old, took pictures in a completely naked state. After the photos appeared on Playboy, Irina lost custody of her daughter. Eva is cared for by the parents of famous designer Christian Louboutin.

Although Eva asked her mother to pay 200,000 euros (nearly 5.5 billion) in costs, the court only asked Irina Ionesco, 77, to pay her daughter 10,000 euros for damages and destroy the photos.

Eva Ionesco as an adult has acted in many films. Her story was written into an autobiography and Eva directed the film from that autobiography. The film is called My Little Princess and won many film awards. It seems that, although many years have passed, the shadow that "mother" left on Eva has not disappeared.

In addition to Eva Ionesco, there are many child models forced to become adults too soon by their families, causing controversy.

Kristina Pimenova was named the world's youngest supermodel at the age of 8. "The most beautiful Russian angel in the world" started her career at the age of 3, loves sports and traveling. The child model has an impressive profile when advertising for famous children's fashion lines, appearing on the cover of Vogue Bambini and rarely wearing heavy makeup.

However, many people think that Thylane is too young for glamorous photography. She used to work for IMG Models, the same company with Gigi sisters - Bella Hadid, Kaia Gerber.
