On the eve of the presidential elections of 2022, Karine Le Marchand invites herself into the intimacy of five famous French politicians. The host of the M6 channel is indeed back with new numbers of her show “Une Ambition Intime” in which she tries to reveal another facet of political personality.
After Nicolas Sarkozy, Arnaud Montebourg or Bruno Le Maire, this time it was the turn of Anne Hidalgo, Marlène Schiappa, Rachida Dati, Marine Le Pen and Valérie Pécresse to play the game by revealing themselves in their family daily life. If Marine Le Pen took us to her vegetable garden and Rachida Dati invited us to her family home alongside her sisters, Valérie Pécresse spoke about her family and her husband Jérôme. The one who is now President of the Ile-de-France regional council also returned to the terrible hazing suffered on her arrival at HEC.
Valérie Pécresse makes an astonishing revelation on Jacques Chirac
By evoking her beginnings in politics, Valérie Pécresse looked back on the years when she worked with the former President of the Republic, Jacques Chirac. The opportunity for her to admit that it was he who taught her to kiss! “He was very proud to have taught me to kiss and shake hands” she advanced. “When I was invested for the Legislative he summoned me and he said: ‘shake my hand‘. So I shook his hand, and he said ‘it’s okay you have a firm grip’ ” she continued.
“Then then he said ‘kiss me'” She then explains, admitting to having been paralyzed by this request. She explains having stretched her cheek towards him but he then grabbed her shoulders to kiss her “with the whole body, once, twice “. The former head of state would have explained to him: “you have to kiss with the whole body, like that”.
Disconcerted, Valérie Pécresse then told him “I’m not used to kissing strangers.” To which Jacques Chirac replied: “Yes but they are going to want to kiss you, so you won’t have to be bullshit ! “.
