A short year and then it’s gone. After succeeding Laurence Boccolini in August 2023 at the head of Everyone wants to take its place,Jarry announced his departure from the famous game of France 2 formerly presented by Nagui. A sudden departure, which did not fail to surprise the fans, as well as the candidates.
Indeed, Aurélien, current champion of Everyone wants to take its placereacted to this announcement with our colleagues at Tele-Leisure this Tuesday, April 9, 2024. The Norman has been in the red chair since March 2, has 32 victories, and has already pocketed 29,100 euros in winnings. A prize pool that could well rise but probably without Jarry
unless it is eliminated in the coming weeks.

Aurélien, surprised like everyone else by Jarry’s departure
In any case, like the viewers, Aurélien was obviously not aware of the host’s plans. “It’s really a surprise.”he told our colleagues when they asked him if he expected this choice.
And if the 42-year-old candidate didn’t expect it, it’s “because it’s not something he talked about or let show through.” “He is very attentive to the image of the show, to the feedback that there can be on social networks, so for me, it was part of the duration of the show”explains Aurélien.
The latter, however, recognizes that the host “has his family life”a subject on which he has no “not exchanged with him”. “He told me he felt liberated having made this decision because it was no longer possible for him to reconcile everything”he later revealed.
No tension between the host and the production
However, there would be no tension between Jarry and Simone Harari Baulieu, the game’s producer, as many rumors have suggested. Questioned by our colleagues from Tele-Leisureshe wished to clarify the situation on this subject.
“I deny it vigorously. Jarry has his personality…”, she defended before continuing: “It’s completely normal that there are people in the team who get along more or less well with others, it’s absolutely normal life, not just in companies, but in human groups. For my part, I was immediately very convinced by Jarry and his way of playing the game.”
Enough to put an end to all the rumors.
