He currently lives in the Luberon with his fiancée, two children, four cats, nine fish, one pony, one horse, and one white rabbit. He is still reeling from that fact that the foxes have devoured 14 chickens, two guinea fowl, and one duck since his arrival in the countryside
Mercer is the organiser of Halloween à Saint Maime and is embarrassingly attached to the Olympique de Marseille football team.
