Moving means changing your life. And Laurence Boccolini couldn’t agree more. Versailles by birth, she readily recalled it with humor on TikTok in November 2025 (as relayed by Purepeople) : “I was born in 78, in Versailles. You will notice that if you go into the city, there is no plaque that says I was born there. They are not grateful. I could have had a statue. To say good things about Daft Punkwhich is also from Versailles, yes. But me, nothing.” Versaillaise, then, but not for a long time. And the 62-year-old host has in fact lifted the veil on her move, which was kept silent during this same liverevealing that she left Presles-en-Brie a long time ago, a small town of 2,300 inhabitants in Seine-et-Marne, where she had married Mickaël Fakaïlo and lived a good part of her life.
Paris rather than traffic jams, the practical decision of Laurence Boccolini
The reason for this departure could not be more pragmatic. “I haven’t lived in Presles-en-Brie for a long time. Because it was too far from Paris. With the traffic jams, it took me two hours”she confides on TikTok. Before you joke: “So you might as well live in Marseille, it would be nicer to go to work in Paris.” Presles-en-Brie was, however, much more than just an address. This is where she said “yes” in July 2004 to Mickaël Fakaïlo, the father of her daughter Willow, born in 2013, with whom she has since divorced. A family life built in this quiet town from Seine-et-Marne, far from television sets, and which she ended up leaving for very concrete reasons. Today, the host has permanently settled in the capital45 kilometers from her former home, specifying that she does not live “no longer in the 78 but in Paris”. A change of life that coincides with a period of profound upheavalboth personally and professionally.
“We kick you out like a dog” : the anger of Laurence Boccolini against France Télévisions
Because since the summer of 2025, Laurence Boccolini, also ill, has experienced a difficult period. Unceremoniously ousted from the TV kids for the benefit of Faustine Bollaert, she had learned the news only two days before the publication of the new grid. In October 2025, she slammed the door of France Télévisionsrefusing the conditions imposed by the group. In a very recent podcast, Bangerzshe didn’t mince her words: “You’re nice, we kick you out like a dog and then we ask you to accept what we’re going to offer you because you have no choice. It doesn’t work like that.” She points a “lack of humanity” blatant from management, and assures that it is not an isolated case: “There are a lot of people in this house who are in great pain.” Despite everything, the rebound is there. From May 19, she will be in charge ofWe know the song on W9a musical game dedicated to the 90s, with a board of twelve personalities. “I’m (finally) coming!”she rejoiced on Instagram, this April 27, 2026. The page is turned.
