David Charvet (born David Franck Guez on May 15, 1972 in Lyon, France) is an actor and singer. David's father is a Tunisian Jewish businessman named Paul Guez. His mother, Christiane Charvet is French. He and his siblings grew up speaking French as their first language. When David was nine years-old, his parents split and he moved with his father to the United States.[citation needed]. He won a green card through the "Morrison visa lottery" in the early 1990s.
Until recently he is living in his native France, where he tours (among other parts of Europe) as a singer. He occasionally appears (as himself) on French television.
David became engaged to Brooke Burke in 2006. They have two children together: a daughter, Heaven Rain, born January 8, 2007, and a son, Shaya Braven, born March 5, 2008. They currently live in California.
