In 2021 TF1 broadcast a new season of Koh Lanta. This All Stars season, called The legend, brought together several iconic adventurers. But when they were seen as true survival heroes, a scandal broke during the broadcast. If Teheiura confessed in front of the cameras of the One to have cheated by eating in secret, it would seem that other candidates are involved in a case of clandestine dinners.

Me, I never expressed myself on seasons in which I did not participate“, he launches first. Then, questioned on the veracity or not of these rumors, the father of the family – he has two boys, Andrea and Marceau, born of his love with his companion Virginie – remains unclear: “We have heard a lot of things, most of them false.

More still, he had said he was serene and had even asked “until we bring the proof of these accusationsFinally, he felt that this story had been launched with the sole aim of harming him. As a reminder, he was not the only one to be targeted: Laurent Maistret and Sam would also have benefited from food. off cameras.
