Stéphane Bern, Élodie Frégé and David Douillet reveal themselves to Faustine Bollaert

We challenge you not to shed a tear (of joy, of emotion)… For six seasons since Faustine Bollaert has invited her guests to open their “box of secrets”, the show has established itself as a cocoon of sensitivity and delicacy, a true setting for cult moments with high emotional density. How can we forget the dignity of Michel Fugain recounting the tragic loss of his daughter? How can we remain indifferent to Théo Curin leafing through, with a lump in his throat, the album of his childhood which reveals his first amputation? How not to commune with the crazy laughter of Marianne James revisiting The Beauty of Cadiz in homage to Hélène Ségara? How to hold back your tears in front of those of Lara Fabian discovering her husband’s declaration of love? Upsetting scenes that, since 2019, Faustine Bollaert has welcomed and authorized with the kindness and humor that characterize her. The Secret Box achieves the challenge of emotion without ever falling into pathos. It encourages confidences without ever falling into narcissistic unveiling – because the guests’ secrets become ours: we recognize ourselves in them, we find our own wounds there, we celebrate our own victories over life.
For this new issue, it’s the turn of host Stéphane Bern, singer Élodie Frégé and Olympic champion David Douillet to sit comfortably in front of their own box of secrets, open it for us and share memories , anecdotes and milestones, without forgetting to be surprised by the tailor-made happenings concocted with the help of their loved ones. A new evening of joy and emotion… We are not at the end of our surprises.
