“We can make love, you can come to my house”: Gérard Darmon accused of sexist and sexual violence by nine women, the actor denies the facts

In an investigation published Wednesday, November 27, Politis ensures that nine women accuse Gérard Darmon of sexist and sexual violence. They are dressers, makeup artists, hairdressers and even technicians and spoke of “the impunity granted to the artist”. The facts date back to 2018 for the oldest testimony, and to last summer for the most recent.

“Humiliation” and non-consensual physical contact

The women who agreed to testify to Politis are not all the same age, the youngest barely being of age, others less than 30 years old. Gérard Darmon celebrated his 76th birthday this year. They declare insults or a “need to touch women” on the part of the Franco-Moroccan and describe “humiliation” as well as non-consensual physical contact.
