Certainly, it is easier to gain notoriety and continue your “career” by winning Secret Storythan just passing through. Many ex-candidates can attest to this. However, there are a few exceptions like Xavier Delarue, Amélie Neten, Vincent Queijo, or even Eddy. These candidates may not have won the program hosted by Benjamin Castaldi and Christophe Beaugrand. But that didn’t stop them from remaining in the spotlight and continuing to be talked about in shows and on social networks.
And there are those who preferred to withdraw. Become anonymous again to devote yourself to other passions, having nothing to do with reality TV. Like Simon for example. The handsome guy from season 5, during which Marie Garet was crowned winner, who was in a relationship with Juliette. Since leaving the House of Secrets, the young man has decided to devote himself to his passion: tattooing.

Simon from Secret Story 5, a great tattoo artist
Our colleagues from Purepeople have also indicated in 2021, that he practiced his profession at the Shadow Ink salon located in the 16th arrondissement of Paris. In this salon, Simon carried out his clients’ projects, such as drawings, dates, writings. Fully tattooed, the former candidate of Secret Story hasn’t changed that much. However, he finally embraces his passion that he seemed to hide until now. In any case, this is what his publication of November 28, 2023 on his Instagram account suggests.
Under his pseudonym Patcho, Internet users can discover his work. He revealed part of it in one of his latest publications, taking the opportunity to attack people who have preconceptions about reality TV candidates. “It seems that the people who make Secret Story have no talent”he wrote in the caption, before adding: “You have to take the time to find your way, eh. Make me break through, I assume that after 12 years”. Surprising that the young man has not taken responsibility until now, his work is so remarkable.
