Titillated by this atypical candidate, Yann Barthès invites him to the set of “Quotidien”. After rebroadcast Valentin’s moving confession extract, the TMC host puts his feet in the dish.
“Embarrassed” or even afraid to express himself on this difficult subject, Valentin clarifies something essential. “When we start the adventure, we introduce ourselves and I had to [d’en] talk.”
Little by little, he relaxes and releases crucial information. “My cancer can be seen in my eye. I have always been very modest […] but I thought it was an important message to get across.” We promise, in our next articles, we intend to reveal to you all the exploits of this virtuoso of the flame!
