Almost 30 years ago, Claire Chazal and Patrick Poivre d’Arvor lived a beautiful romance. The TF1 star couple even had a child together. Indeed, the former presenter of the television news now at the controls of the Great Chessboard on France 2 gave birth to François on April 29, 1995. Discreet, far from the spotlight, he lives his life. But, from time to time, his parents indulge in some intimate confidences. This is the case this Monday, June 27, 2022 in the columns of the magazine TV 7 Days.
The next issue of Great Chessboard is devoted to French cultural excellence, a subject she is particularly fond of.

Since then, François has returned home. Well almost: at 27, he no longer lives with his mother and has settled, according to the latest news, in a lively district of the capital. There is no doubt that the duo will continue their cultural outings…
