“Since 1968 at TF1… The longest CDI on French Television. With Super Evelyne, we wish you a very nice Sunday evening on TF1”, wrote on his Twitter account Jean-Luc Reichmann, March 26, 2023. A beautiful tribute to which the host had attached a selfie in the company of the emblematic weather presenter. The main interested party was questioned about this longevity by our colleagues from Tele-Leisure. “I’m very proud of it”she started. “More than 50 years of career, that impresses me myself! I never made a career plan and I never thought that I was going to take the place of so and so, especially not! When I arrived to the weather (at the end of the 80s, editor’s note), a woman was needed, rather blonde because Catherine Laborde was dark-haired, and someone who was used to the air. these criteria. There is an element of luck in my career”.
Weather presenter or news presenter?
If the beauty has been pointing the tip of its nose for a few days, the temperatures will increase in the coming weeks. Unfortunately, the summer of 2023 should not escape a new heat wave. “There, we are in an acceleration with more frequent, longer heat waves, which start earlier and end later. For this summer, Météo-France evokes a signal which would indicate temperatures above normal”, she said about climate change.
Moreover, Evelyne Dhéliat revealed that she would have liked to occupy another position within the first channel. “At the time, journalism was something that I was passionate about. I tell myself that if I had started a few years later, I could have presented the newspapers. I am very interested in current events, in politics . It might not have worked… But in the end, I’m behind the table at 20 Heures when I make trays in the newspapers!”
But we would have liked to see her in this role occupied by Gilles Bouleau, Anne-Claire Coudray or Marie-Sophie Lacarrau.
