Djimon Hounsou Parents: Meet Pierre Hounsou, Albertine Hounsou
Hounsou was born into a lovely family. His father is called Pierre Hounsou and his mother is called Albertine Hounsou. But reports say Hounsou had grown up without his parents because his parents left him and moved to Ivory Coast for greener pastures.
According to Hounsou, he was just a very torn child, wounded in so many areas with no family support. He was also their fifth and youngest child so everyone else was grown and had left home leaving the young starlet to survive all by himself.
Pierre and his wife were chefs by profession. Hounsou met his father for the first time in his life when he was around 10 years old and because life was lonely for him, it was always a dream to escape the surrounding so he left Benin with his elder brother in search of greener pastures in France.
