Since Monday August 26, Benjamin Duhamel has been at the helm of the show Everyone wants to know from 6:50 p.m. on BFMTV. A great promotion for the journalist who has been working for several months on the continuous news channel recently bought by Rodolphe Saadé, boss of the shipowner CMA-CGM. Happy in his work, the son of Patrice Duhamel and Nathalie Saint-Cricq can also boast of being fulfilled in love. Indeed, he has a great story with Agathe Lambret with whom he recently found himself in competition. If the latter does not evolve on television, his voice can still be heard in the same time slot on the radio. For good reason, the journalist, who worked on BFMTV until 2023, has been entrusted with control of the 6 p.m. / 9 p.m. news on Franceinfo since the start of the school year in September.
Although busy during this last trimester, the couple was still able to take a period of respite during these end-of-year celebrations. At least that’s the case for Benjamin Duhamel who has just published a photo on Instagram in which we can see a brazier cooking chestnuts (see slideshow). All on what seems to be the terrace of a café or restaurant by the sea. But not just anywhere. Indeed, on the photo, we can see the location of the host. And it is Deauville. Located in Normandy in Calvados, the small coastal town is the most popular of small towns in France. The elegant seaside resort of just 4,000 inhabitants has managed to establish itself on the international scene and attract tourists from all over the world, including many celebrities who enjoy spending time there. They particularly appreciate the Barrière Le Normandy hotel, the most famous in the city. Still count on around 400 euros per night to stay there!
Benjamin Duhamel, who is his first cousin, a leading political figure?
Even if his talent no longer needs to be proven, the man has often been decried as a “son of”. However, it turns out that he is also the cousin of a high-ranking political figure. In fact, it was his father who spoke on the subject last January. “Thank you for clarifying that it was my niece, because things need to be transparent.” he said on Europe 1 about the family ties that unite his family to that of the former Minister of National Education Amélie Oudéa-Castéra. Conclusion, Benjamin Duhamel and Amélie Oudéa-Castéra are cousins. Indeed, the former Minister of National Education is the daughter of Richard Castéra and Dominique Duhamel. The latter is the sister of Patrice and Alain Duhamel, which therefore makes the former minister the first cousin of Benjamin Duhamel.
