For several decades, Éric Zemmour worked as a journalist for various media outlets. Known for his strong positions, the 65-year-old has not only made friends through his television appearances, particularly on the show We are not lying down on France 2. Indeed, his often controversial opinions have aroused as much admiration as criticism. But in 2021, the latter had made a real change of course: Eric Zemmour officially launched himself into politics by founding his own political party. On the occasion of the 2022 presidential election, the polemicist announced his candidacy. And since then, he has continued to be talked about in the French political landscape.
Eric Zemmour in the midst of controversy during the 2024 legislative elections
After permanently banishing Marion Maréchal at the head of the European Reconquête list, Éric Zemmour is once again at the heart of the news. Indeed, while the far-right is skyrocketing in anticipation of the next legislative elections, it has appeared humming… a melody that is problematic to say the least.
Filmed by a third party, this situation involving Éric Zemmour went around the Internet. First published on TikTok, the latter was also relayed by the politician himself via his Twitter account. We hear words like “You will leave with your Fatma, for you the RSA is over […]when Bardella (editor’s note: Jordan Bardella, president of the National Rally) comes, you will go back home, you will put on your djellaba, you will be able to pray all day, you are starting to bore us”etc.
Éric Zemmour lives in a beautiful Parisian apartment
Dubious remarks when we know that Éric Zemmour comes from a working-class family of Jewish Berbers from Algeria originally from Sétif. However, after having lived for many years in the suburbs of Paris, he settled in the heart of the capital.
In 1996, the editorialist invested in a magnificent 165 m² apartment. Today, this property would be estimated at more than 1.8 million euros. A considerable sum which is not excessive in the eyes of Éric Zemmour. On -, the president of Reconquête declared in November 2021: « 1,3 million [d’euros] in Paris, it’s 100 square meters […] “These are not what you call rich.”

And this was not the only property that Éric Zemmour owned. Indeed, throughout his life, Sarah Knafo’s partner had bought several apartments throughout France. In total, he has five apartments, four of which are in Paris.
Each offers a different surface area. According to information from the High Authority for Transparency in Public Life a few years ago, this ranged from 27 to 165 m².
