Natacha Polony, French journalist and essayist, is an emblematic figure in the French media landscape. Known for her outspokenness and her strong positions, she embodies committed journalism. During her career, the one who was a columnist for Laurent Ruquier never hid her commitment to the defense of education and the transmission of knowledge, sometimes positioning herself against certain educational reforms. She also campaigns for a free and independent press, pointing out the excesses of information in the digital age.
In addition to her busy professional career, Natacha Polony is also the happy mother of three children with very original first names. Eneko aged 8 years old, Cosima, 5 years, and Bartolomé, 3 years. Guest of Jordan De Luxe on the set of the show At Jordan’s this Wednesday October 11, 2023, the director of Marianne spoke at length about the trio and their relationship to the parents’ celebrity.

“We don’t have to impose that on them”
As a media personality, Natacha Polony intends to preserve the privacy of her children. “They didn’t choose their parents to be famous”she believes. “We don’t have to impose that on them.” “They live their lives, it’s painful enough for them to see their mother on television”specifies the one who should soon join Laurent Ruquier on BFM TV.
And to continue: “For a child it’s not trivial when you’re in the street and people stop me… There’s something special like if your mother was taken from them. We have to protect them. We have to explain to them that this is not the norm, it’s a bit special, but we try to ensure that they have their space preserved.” To do this, Natacha Polony and her husband Périco Légasse very rarely talk about their family life.
