who are her twins Olivia and Élodie?

Friday January 10, Denise Fabre is invited on the show The secret boxbroadcast on France 3. Since 1980, the former presenter has been the happy mother of Olivia and Élodie, twins who lead careers far from television.

An essential figure on the small screen, Denise Fabre will have the pleasure of discovering some lovely surprises in the show The secret boxbroadcast this Friday January 10 on France 3. Faced with Faustine Bollaert, the former presenter of Télévitrine will not fail to reveal some secrets about her career but also about her private life. For 44 years now, she has been the happy mother of Olivia and Élodie, fruits of her love story with Francis Vandenhende. When the twins showed up, two TV stars were chosen to be their godfather and godmother, Michel Drucker and Évelyne Dhéliat. Although they grew up in the light of the television world, Olivia and Élodie did not follow in their mother’s footsteps.

The first of this duo has in fact decided to work as a project manager in a large Parisian advertising agency, as reported Purepeople . Happy professionally, the young woman is also happy in love. Since 2011, she has been the wife of lawyer Charles de Coubertin, descendant of Baron de Coubertin. What about his sister? For her part, Élodie had a brilliant career as a lawyer before entering politics. First advisor to the Secretary General of the French Presidency of the European Union and then to actions carried out by the State in the context of practices relating to competition on digital platforms, she was appointed deputy to the head of the department of digital economy. Courses which must certainly make Denise Fabre proud.

Denise Fabre filmed in the maternity ward: the underside of this surreal scene

The birth of his daughters will forever be engraved in his memory. During his appearance on the show C to youbroadcast on March 12, 2024 on France 5Denise Fabre revealed that she was filmed by TF1 cameras just a few hours after giving birth. A stolen moment of intimacy that one who had a political career regrets. “I had just given birth the same morning, by cesarean section, which we are still not in a great state… He sent me a makeup artist, a hairdresser, he called me and said ‘you have to do this, it’s ‘is for the channel, for TF1, you can’t do that to us, you have to do it Denise!'”, she explained, visibly still upset by this memory.

The “he” that Denise Fabre speaks of is none other than Yves Mourousi, former journalist and presenter of TF1 who died in 1998, who, according to her, asked her to stage herself just after giving birth. “I can’t tell you how I felt! And I had my doctor who was there and who told me ‘you’re going to pay dearly!'”she added, evoking the disarray in which she found herself. This moment, as improbable as it may seem, left deep marks on Denise Fabre, even forgetting the first name of one of her daughters, Élodie, at the time. An oversight that she still regrets today, as evidenced by her remorseful words: “I’m sorry, my darling little Élodie…”
