After more than 23 years of good and loyal service, Christophe Beaugrand is preparing to turn a beautiful and long professional page. As he told his subscribers on X, the journalist and host will leave LCI this Sunday, December 24, 2023for a well-deserved promotion on TF1. From January 8, 2024he will officiate in the TF1 morning news called Good morning, and which will be worn by Bruce Toussaint, leaving BFMTV. The two journalists will be surrounded daily by other key faces of the group, such as Ange Noiret, Karima Charni, Adrien Gindre, Hélène Mannarino, Laurent Mariotte and Anaïs Grangerac, but also new recruits drawn to the competition, like Benjamin Müller stung KindergartensMonique Younès stung Indulgeand Maud Descamps and Vincent Valinducq stung Telematin.
If Christophe Beaugrand is happy to join this new family, it remains no less sad to leave anotherwith whom he worked for two decades: “Last weekend for me on LCI. You can’t imagine how sad it is to leave this great team! Just one more show tomorrow morning… it’s going to be hard to hold back my tears. A huge thank you to everyone for your loyalty” declared the one who we will find in a few months at the head of a special season of Ninja Warrior in which the champions of Ninja Warrior broadcast in the USA and Asia.
