They married when she was only 15 and she gave birth at 16.
"Léon: The Professional" was based on their relationship.
Besson left her three years later for Milla Jovovich during the filming of "The Fifth Element."
The original cut of "Léon" had scenes which portray 12 year-old Mathilda as highly sexual, attempting to seduce Léon.
These scenes were cut from the US release because they "tested very poorly" with American audiences, but were included in the 1996 European release.
When the film was first tested in LA, it incuded a scene where Mathilda asks Léon to be her lover. However, the audience became extremely uncomfortable and began to laugh nervously. The film received terrible test scores at the screening, and Besson cut it for theatrical release.
"Léon: The Professional" was Natalie Portman's motion picture debut. She was 11 when she was cast.
At 13 she received "rape fantasies" in the mail. A local radio station started a countdown to her 18th birthday, when she would be "legal".
Luc Besson was never "cancelled" for impregnating 15 year-old Maïwenn.
On December 9, multiple rape allegations against him were dismissed.
Dutch actress Sand Van Roy and eight other women said they had been assaulted or harassed by Besson over the years. hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie-n…
France (like most of the world) has a long history of child marriage — legally binding young girls to adult men who rape them — but notably, this agenda has been openly pushed by intellectual elites for decades and continues to be an issue to this day.
French intellectual Foucault was discovered to be a serial child sexual abuser, a paedophile who raped Arab children while living in Tunisia in the late 1960s.
In 2017, when an 11 year-old girl was raped by a 28 year-old man, the case was not treated as rape.
Defense lawyers argued that she was "nearly 12 years old," and added: "We are not dealing with a sexual predator on a poor little faultless goose." amp.theatlantic.com/amp/article/55…
In 2020, French writer Gabriel Matzneff came under investigation for his pedophilia.
For decades, he was celebrated for talking openly about stalking teenage girls outside schools in Paris and having sexual contact with 8-year-old boys in the Philippines. nytimes.com/2020/02/11/wor…
When Francesca Gee sought out book publishers for her account of how, as a teenager, she was lured into a toxic relationship with writer Gabriel Matzneff when he was 20 years her senior, she was shut out of the industry and had to self-publish.
Earlier this year, protests broke out across France calling for revisions to age of consent laws after a woman came forward with claims that she was raped by 20 firefighters when she was between the ages of 13 - 15.
French courts ruled that 20 firefighters accused of raping a girl when she was aged 13 - 15 should be charged with the lesser offense of "sexual assault without violence, constraint, threat or surprise," with a maximum 7 year sentence, rather than rape.

The origin of the "transgender" movement goes back several decades before Judith Butler's book "Gender Trouble," published in 1990.
The "trans" movement originated with sexologists and their partnerships with fetishists.
Virginia Prince, born Arnold Lowman, who popularized the term "transgender," said he got erections while imagining himself as a "girl".
He worked with the American Psychiatric Association to destigmatize transvestic fetishism by reframing sexual pathology as "identity."
It is the APA that is largely to blame for the "transgender" social contagion. Unlike the esoteric ramblings of academic queer theorists, the APA actively influences medical protocols, and by extension the WHO and the UN.

The idea that sex is a social construct dates back to the 1960s, and was pioneered by sexologist John Money.
Dr. Money forced children to act out "copulation play" while he photographed them, and advocated for sexual relationships between adult men and children.
The word "gender" rose in usage after 1980, the year that the third edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-III) was published by the American Psychiatric Association.
The word "gender" does not appear even once in the DSM-II. The DSM-III, however, included for the first time the concept of "gender identity" in the manual, which is published, for profit, by the APA.
Gender identity disorder is classified as a psychosexual disorder in the DSM-III. Several notable sexologists were on the committee overseeing the addition of "gender identity disorder" into the DSM.
Among them was pedophile apologist John Money, who devoted his life to promoting the idea that sex is socially constructed, and who attempted to convince a young boy that he was really a girl.
Money would force David Reimer - who he called "Brenda" - to engage in "copulation play" from the age of about 6 years old with his twin brother Brian. Money photographed the children in sexual positions together, and to this day is cited by NAMBLA.
Transvestites are men with a sexual pathology that escalates towards public predation.
Transgenderism is an attempt to rebrand their behavior by including women and children under a more "inclusive" term, thereby providing cover for male fetishes that overlap with pedophilia.
New Zealand's most prominent "trans woman," Lexie Matheson, who claims to be a "lesbian," has had a significant influence on national and local policies surrounding gender self-identification and has been competing in women’s sports competitions.
In a Pinterest folder titled 'My Obsessive Stuff,' Matheson shared "loli" illustrations of young girls, and lesbian pulp erotica book covers, some of which show schoolgirls engaged in sadomasochistic bondage.
Matheson, who has been involved in women's karate and has won women's titles, revealed in a recent interview that he has been using the women's changing rooms and restrooms for more than twenty years.
Matheson has also been recognized on a national level, and was an honoree in the 2016 Queen’s Birthday Honours List, where he was made an Officer of the New Zealand Order of Merit for his LGBTQ advocacy. Matheson is also a founding member of Auckland Pride Festival, Inc.
I don't quite understand why Mia keeps bringing this up without mentioning any one of the dozen articles I've written about it, nor why she insists on making it sound so incredible.
What I discovered was far more shocking than simply the endorsement of a "eunuch identity" from the World Professional Association for Transgender Health.
The online forum cited by WPATH was co-founded by a convicted pedophile named Thomas Pidel who was involved in a child abuse ring.
The opinions of men in the forum - men who were writing sadistic child sexual abuse stories about castration - were presented as research at a 2009 WPATH conference organized by a pro-pedophile sexologist with connections to the Paedophile Information Exchange (PIE).
After I published that report, I was notified by Google that it would be hidden from search results in certain unnamed European countries.
"The World Professional Association for Transgender Health referenced a fetish forum co-founded by a convicted pedophile while crafting their most recent standards of care. Thomas Pidel was discovered to have been involved in a pedophile ring."
I was the first to name and investigate WPATH (The World Professional Association for Transgender) and its influence on major institutions. I was the first to call out the connections to pedophilia activism.
Because of my work on WPATH and the Eunuch Archives - a pedophilic castration fetish forum cited in their Standards of Care in 2021 - I was asked to write the WPATH Files in 2022.
It was a copycat investigation based on my work.
Someone paid $200 to access a public WPATH Forum. This person contacted me directly and we had video calls.
The project was taken over by Genspect after this person began posting publicly on social media.
I thought the WPATH Files was a rehash of what has already been put out by other people, specifically blogs like @STILLTish and @4th_WaveNow who have documented medical abuse.
At the time, I was very focused on the issue of women in prison dealing with male transfers.
The WPATH Files, as it was presented, wasn't something I felt was a priority. But I was originally asked to do it.
So when the report was published, and my work was mentioned without a citation, I was confused.
Then I started to get direct messages from multiple people involved in the project, interactions that I didn't initiate.
