They did not expect such a reunion. During the Brive-la-Gaillarde Book Fair, which was held from November 8 to 10, 2024, Valérie Trierweiler met her ex-companion François Hollande. A funny moment that she recounts this Thursday, November 14 on The Big Heads. At the microphone of Laurent Ruquier's showthe former First Lady shares details about this moment: “It went very well! Yes, there was a hug and we exchanged our books”, she says.
Despite their high-profile separation in 2014, the journalist assures that over time, tensions have eased: “Of course, there comes a point where time passes.” If Valérie Trierweiler was present in Brive to present her new book It's for a friendco-written with a friend and intended to inspire fifty-year-olds, François Hollande defended his latest work entitled The challenge of governing – The Left and the power of the Dreyfus affair to the present day. Their meeting surprised the visitors, who did not fail to capture this unusual moment. The two ex-companions therefore exchanged a few words before posing for a photo.
Valérie Trierweiler trapped by Léa Salamé
Although she does not often meet the former President of the Republic, Valérie Trierweiler is regularly questioned about their relationship and in particular their breakup, marked by the adultery of the Head of State with the actress Julie Gayet. Last October, during her appearance on the show Quelle Epoque!, the journalist was invited to react to the portraits displayed. At the helm of the program, Léa Salamé did not hesitate to include a photo of François Hollande in her selection. Which did not fail to make his guest react: “Ah, I didn’t think you would dare!”
Before adding: “I’m not going to be like Beatrice and answer things that might embarrass you…”. An allusion to the sequence broadcast shortly before in the show, in which actress Béatrice Dalle returned to the time when she reframed Patrick Poivre d'Arvor live. Instead, she suggests: “Is he really thinking about being a candidate again in 2027? But can he do it without me?” Amused, Léa Salamé retorts: “I wouldn’t want to preempt the ex-president’s thoughts but he will be delighted with this reflection, I think!”
