Since her marriage in 2004 to Luc Besson, Virginie has been known as Virginie Silla-Besson or Virginie Besson-Silla. The couple have three children: Thalia; Satine; and Mao Besson.
In 2010, Time quoted Luc saying she was a more perfect Producer than he was and that she hereby enabled him to focus on directing his artistically most demanding, sumptuous film The Lady (2011).
