Laurent Ruquier had no one by his side on Saturday February 19, 2022 to host We are live, on France 2. His faithful sidekick Léa Salamé was absent due to the Covid-19. A news that delighted Jérôme Caverivière, always spicy.
In his column retracing the news of the week, the latter did not fail to pour out on the absence of Léa Salamé. “I don’t want to speak ill of Léa but it’s true that she slowed down the show“, he began, a black humor which despite everything made Laurent Ruquier laugh. “Léa, she was punctual, always impeccable, we cannot take her away. On the other hand, it is true that the tone on the questions, it was a little false, it looked like Valérie Pécresse”, continued Jérôme Caverivière, Laurent Ruquier saying he was embarrassed in front of his guests surrounding him, Ana Girardot, Stéphane De Groodt, Valerie Bonneton and Niels Schneider.
And then, as we felt coming, Léa Salamé appeared live, from her home. His intervention began with some news of his health. “I go average, I have the Covid and I have it in a rather violent version“, said the 42-year-old journalist before speaking to Jérôme Caverivière, who face-to-face, told him that he was saddened by his absence. Léa Salamé confirmed to Laurent Ruquier that she would be back as soon as next week by her side, regretting not being able to be present in front of this week’s choice guests.
We are live is not the only issue that the companion of Raphaël Glucksmann had to give up this week. She had to animate Elysee 2022 last Thursday and had to be replaced in a hurry, just hours before the live. It is finally another size of the policy on television, Nathalie Saint-Cricq, who had received Yannick Jadot, the candidate EELV (Europe Ecology The Greens). The information had been revealed by our colleagues from Puremedias.com which stated:Positive for Covid-19, Léa Salamé must indeed isolate herself and is forced to leave her place. Also absent from the France Inter morning show this morning, the journalist was however heard during her 7:50 am interview with rapper and comedian Sofiane Zermani, recorded in advance.
