A news that will sadden many viewers. Absent more and more often on “TPMP” in recent weeks, many viewers have suspected a probable departure of Matthieu Delormeau. He tried to reassure as he could by ensuring that everything was fine between him, Cyril Hanouna, and the chain. But according to our exclusive information, the columnist and host had indeed been working on new projects for some time. The proof, with his departure from the group announced this Friday, May 12.
In fact, arrived at C8 in 2015, Matthieu Delormeau left the channel, its daily newspaper, and his “baby” “TPMP People”. If we do not yet know what projects he will embark on, we are sure of one thing. He will be greatly missed by C8 viewers, but also by Cyril Hanouna and the other columnists. And, this, even if some tensions have arisen with his boss in certain dailies over the years.

The tone shows after the cancellation of the concert of Bilal Hassani
On April 4, 2023, for example, the tone rose between the two when François Billot de Lochner, president of the association for the Political Service Foundation, was invited to the show. This one, present to debate after the cancellation of the concert of Bilal Hassani. As a reminder, the concert, initially planned in an old desecrated church in Metz, did not finally see the light of day after the numerous complaints and threats against the 23-year-old artist. Not agreeing with this choice (the arrival of François Billot from Lochner: editor’s note), Matthieu Delormeau, who always shows frankness, expressed his anger. The troublemaker of the PAF had therefore had to call him to order several times, annoyed by his behavior.
A clash, before reconciliation
On February 13, 2023, a new clash broke out between the two. While Cyril Hanouna has not ceased to tickle his columnist, the latter was annoyed and expressed his annoyance. Surprised by this reaction, “Baba” then did not hesitate to reframe it before Matthieu Delormeau threatened to leave the set. After a commercial break, the pair finally reconciled and kissed on air. Delormeau explained that he was going through a difficult time due to the illness of two members of his family, which made him more sensitive than usual.
Matthieu Delormeau, “humiliated” for many fans
In 2016, the former host of “MadMag” on NRJ12, also reacted strongly after some viewers described Cyril Hanouna’s behavior towards him as “humiliating”. As a reminder, the columnist had received noodles in underwear. An event that deeply shocked Bruno Donnet, journalist for France Inter.
Matthieu Delormeau then took the floor to calm things down and ensure that everything was fine between him and his boss, and that he had felt nothing humiliating in this sequence, apart from the article, precisely, written about him. . “The article is above all humiliating for me and not for you (Cyril Hanouna: editor’s note), because it implies that I am ready for anything”he defended himself before continuing: “Now, I can tell you, I’ve never had so much fun, I also recognize the sympathy that it attracts me from the people in the street. If people like us a little bit, it’s because that they realize that the first ones who are laughed at are us”.
The car at the pound…and crushed
On October 13, 2022, Matthieu Delormeau once again raised some questions among fans of “TPMP”. And in particular on the treatment he suffered on a daily basis. Indeed, the star host of C8 made him believe that his car was being impounded because of awkward parking. If it was a joke, the columnist took a long time to figure it out and this once again caused embarrassment among some viewers.
A few years ago, just after his arrival in the daily in 2015, the 49-year-old man was again the subject of a “joke” in relation to his car. The teams of C8 made him believe that his vehicle was being run over by a Monster Truck. On the verge of tears and in deep distress, Matthieu Delormeau quickly had to be reassured by Cyril Hanouna, explaining to him that it was not his car.
Despite some tensions that arose during his years as a columnist on “TPMP”, the relationship has always been good between him and Cyril Hanouna. At least, in appearance; Matthieu Delormeau has always been frank, whatever the subject, and it is also because of this that the tone has been able to rise between him and his boss. However, the hatchet was always quickly buried after the clashes.
