This Saturday, November 16, 2024, the former host of “There’s only the truth that counts”, Laurent Fontaine, took advantage of his presence on the set of “Face à Hanouna” to evoke a funny moment experienced with the journalist during ‘a trip to Ibiza.
An eventful restaurant outing
During the show, Laurent Fontaine recounted an astonishing episode where Jean-Pierre Pernaut and himself had made the decision to leave an establishment without paying. “We waited too long, everyone was laughing at us, we were a big table, there were seven or eight of us, and we decided to leave one after the other and not pay“, confided the host, causing astonishment on the set. This unexpected anecdote aroused strong reactions among the columnists present.
Realizing the potential impact of his statements, Laurent Fontaine hastened to temper his remarks. “I don’t know why I say that… It’s not good to say that anyway“, he added, aware that this revelation could displease, in particular Nathalie Marquay, the wife of Jean-Pierre Pernaut. “I’m going to get caught again by Nathalie Marquay: ‘Yes, you’re talking about Jean-Pierre’“, he said, anticipating a possible reaction from the ex-Miss France.
