Laurence Ferrari is also entrusted with political debates during electoral periods, for example. Thus, it is difficult for her to pick up or slow down, as she admits in an interview for Leisure TV.
Laurence Ferrari “permanently” focused on information
-“We all arrive with the same package, namely the raw information, what happened during the day. Afterwards, what interests us? What interests our audience? Everyone models their show. This is why we have total freedom. It’s a complete immersion. We spend 13 or 14 hours a day thinking about the show. In reality, we are constantly in the news field“, she confided.
Heck of a few days for Laurence Ferrari who has to juggle an equally busy family life. Because the journalist is mother of three children : his elders Baptiste (born in 1993) and Laëtitia (born in 1995), from her past marriage to Thomas Hugues, and the youngest Eliottborn in 2008 from her union with the violinist Renaud Capuçon when she was 44 years old.
