Known to TF1 viewers for presenting the weather forecast, Tatiana Silva is actually a former beauty queen. In 2005, she won the Miss Belgium contest. A “magnificent” year but at the same time “special” for the former model, as she explains in the podcast “Femmes de Télé” by “Télé Loisirs”.
“It was a wonderful year because I traveled, I was invited to receptions, a princess life. And when midnight, the coach was transformed and in the morning you had to pay your bills, pay your rent, etc … That was a special year for me “, details Tatiana Silva when she talks about her fond memories of” her time as Cinderella “.
Obviously, Tatiana Silva also keeps painful memories of this year so special and rich in encounters and emotions. She claims to have been the victim of sexism. “The flirting, the advances, these are things that I have known but it was so part of the normal … I did not come out of it traumatized”, affirms the presenter of TF1 before evoking the #MeToo movement which allowed to free the voice of certain women. “Me too revealed sexist attitudes or remarks on the physical”, recalls Tatiana Silva before recounting a highlight of her year as a Miss.
While participating in a photo shoot, the 36-year-old young woman was confronted with the wandering hand of a man: “He put his hand on the lower back, at the level of the buttocks. had to put his hand higher and I was uncomfortable because his wife was on the other side. ” Tatiana Silva also had to face the inappropriate remarks of some men. One of them did not hesitate to flirt with her openly … in front of his wife! “You are beautiful, I would love to have dinner with you,” the man told him. “I then said: ‘For your wife, it’s not very nice sir. This is the moment when you almost have to apologize for being there, so as not to make madam uncomfortable since he proposes to Monsieur is completely out of place. We juggle that. It’s a balancing act, “adds Tatiana Silva.
