If France only had eyes for Léon Marchand for more than two weeks, Teddy Riner's performances made him one of the greatest French athletes in history during the Paris 2024 Olympic Games. After won a new individual gold medal, he was the savior of the French team during the team matches in the final against Japan. A performance that makes the athlete, who recently rant about life in Guadeloupe and Martinique, probably the greatest judoka in history and at 35 years old, he seems to want to push on to the Los Angeles Olympics.
A great success for someone who has shared Luthna Plocus’ life for many years. Together, the judoka and the pretty brunette had two children, a boy named Eden (born in April 2014) and a girl named Ysis (born in September 2018) and everything seems to be going well between them. While waiting for the next Olympics in the United States, the judoka involved in financial bankruptcy this year will embark on a project very far from sport. According to information from ParisianTeddy Riner and his partner agreed to present as a duo the first edition of the French version of the program Love is Blind (Love is blind in French).
Teddy Riner and Luthna Plocus to present Love is Blind
In this reality TV program from the United States, the first season of which took place in 2020, “around fifteen men and around fifteen women, of rather high socio-professional category, are separated in two adjoining lofts. They have the opportunity to get to know each other, without ever seeing each other, by settling into capsules, separated by a wall “as detailed by our colleagues. The show, which should therefore be presented by Teddy Riner and Luthna Plocus, will land in 2025 on the video-on-demand platform Netflix. “The teams and candidates are currently in filming in Moroccoafter a detour to Sweden, where the lofts are located”specifies The Parisian.
A big blow for Netflix with this recruitment, but not the first experience for the judo champion, offering himself a very VIP evening after the Paris Olympics. “The judoka had animated The Race of Championsa sports program filmed at the Stade de France” in the fall of 2019, as our colleagues specify.
