Will the son of Ugo Lartiche, phoenix of Koh-Lanta, soon follow in his father's footsteps by participating in Koh-Lanta? Ugo tells us everything!
Ugo Lartiche, emblematic adventurer of Koh-Lanta, has marked the show since his victory in Malaysia.
He is particularly the pride of his 13-year-old son, who could one day follow in his father's footsteps by participating in Koh-Lanta.
For the moment, according to Ugo, the teenager would nevertheless be more interested in other passions.
He is one of the emblematic adventurers in the history of Koh Lanta. Since its first appearance in Koh-Lanta: Malaysiawhich he won almost unanimously against Brice, Ugo Lartiche is in the spotlight on the TF1 adventure show. He notably left his mark thanks to his career in Koh-Lanta : The Legendby reaching the final after being the first eliminated of the season, then he surprised in Koh-Lanta : the cursed tribe by revealing his strategic side for the first time…
A model adventurer, Ugo inspires new generations of adventurers and makes his son proud. Aged 13, the latter recently made a notable appearance in The cursed tribewhen he recorded a video for his father. “I'm not the son of just anyone, I'm the son of Ugo from Koh-Lanta! the teenager proudly said. So you're going to come back from here, a winner.”
“For now, he’s thinking more about his friends and manga”
Obviously very proud of his father, the young boy seems to share his taste for the game and wins. To the point, he too, of one day participating in Koh Lanta ? For the moment, nothing is less certain. According to Ugo, who recently spoke to Télé Star on the subject, the teenager would have passions quite far from sport and survival. “For now, he's thinking more about his friends and manga.”, the 42-year-old adventurer laughed, while admitting that he would have difficulty letting his offspring go on an adventure as intense as Koh Lanta.
“If he left, I would be terrified, he admits. I would rather do a fourth adventure than send him! (laughs) I know how hard it is, how hard it is. It's an adventure before being a TV show. We will draw very deep within ourselves. Under the influence of hunger, we discover sides of ourselves that we did not know. Some people don't even recognize themselves when they see themselves on the screen and it would scare me to let my son go there. I completely trust the production but… Just imagining it on site, in the hassle, it scares me a little.”
Ugo will not prevent his son from doing Koh-Lanta
That being said, Ugo will not stop his son to follow in his footsteps if he felt like it. “If he wants to go, he will! I would love to follow his adventures and he would probably do better than me!”
May the phoenix rest assured, her baby is still far too young to go play Robinson! The age required to participate in Koh Lanta being 18 years old, Ugo still has at least five years of respite. Phew!
