Who is Sofia Coppola’s husband Thomas Mars?

Thomas, whose real last name is Croquet, was born on November 21, 1976, in Versailles, France.

He is the frontman for the band Phoenix, which was founded in the early 1990s.

After dropping out of college, the band eventually became a full-time profession for Mars.

The band pressed 500 copies of a single on their own label before being signed to the Paris-based label, Source Records.

He wrote and produced Phoenix’s first charting single in France, Too Young, which peaked at number 97.

The band has released six albums and in 2010 won a Grammy Award.

How long have Sofia Coppola and Thomas Mars been married and how many children do they have?

Sofia has been married to Thomas since 2011.

The couple met in 1999 when his band asked to contribute to the soundtrack of her movie The Virgin Suicides.

One of the band’s songs was also included on the soundtrack of Sofia‘s 2003 movie Lost in Translation.

The couple have two children together, Romy and Cosima.

As of 2018, the pair live in New York with their children.

He travels to Paris monthly and has a residence there for work.

Who else has Sofia Coppola dated?

Sofia was previously married to director Spike Jonze.

They got married seven years after meeting on the set of Sonic Youth’s music video for the song “100%” which Jonze was directing at the time in 1999.

However, it was short-lived, and the pair divorced in 2003.

They blamed their split on “irreconcilable differences.”

She then dated filmmaker Quentin Tarantino from 2003 to 2005.

The pair remained friends after their split and Tarantino presented Sofia with the Golden Lion award for her film Somewhere at the Venice Film Festival in 2010.

At the time, Tarantino received backlash for having a bias toward Coppola, although he disagreed.

“Being her friend didn’t affect me or make me sway the jury in any way,” he told reporters in 2011.
