It was a love story engraved for eternity under a chair: “I love Estelle Martin. LCE English. She's the most beautiful girl in college. » Thirty years later, this seat found its way to Céline Maurice, a furniture restorer from Amiens. Intrigued, the craftsman launched a search notice on social networks to try to find the famous Estelle…
“If it turns out Estelle Martin is today married to the author of this sweet note. Or maybe not married at all, alone with her kitty cat, thinking that no one has ever loved her, the second-hand dealer who we suspect of loving beautiful love stories had fun. Or maybe she's getting upset because she's very happy, but we'll have given everything to get her a pretty smile. “.
The quest seemed difficult, even lost in advance with the most common surname in France. But a crowd of people mobilized to find her and the appeal was relayed by BFMTV in its program “Premier edition”. And it was a man, who had access to the university archives, who hit the jackpot. He found Estelle and her class: 1994-1996.
Erasmus and a photo album
“It coincided with what I had done as a study, with my story with Richard, my boyfriend at the time”, explains “the most beautiful girl at the university”, to BFMTV. A story that lasted two years with this English student, the time of his studies as an Erasmus in Chambéry.

Today, Estelle is still at university, but on the other side of the office, as an English teacher. At the invitation of the second-hand dealer, she agreed to come and collect the chair… and to bring him photos of Richard that she kept in a photo album from the time. A piece of evidence which should allow us to know if, really, Estelle was (potentially) “The most beautiful girl at the University”. But is that really the most important thing?
