The TV presenter recounts this Monday, in an interview with Mediapart, that she was drugged and a victim of rape at the singer’s home in 1991, when she was 16 years old.
Flavie Flament spoke in a video interview published this Monday on the Mediapart website, once again accusing Patrick Bruel of having raped her when she was a teenager. The famous presenter says she was drugged and raped at the singer’s home in 1991, when she was 16 years old.
“At 16, it’s normally the age of the first emotions. “It’s not the age for rape in a Parisian apartment,” sums up the host. Facing the camera, she speaks of a “total blackout”, after having drunk tea in the singer’s apartment. “I have an extremely precise memory of the moment when I come out of this state, when I open my eyes. And there I see him, we are on his bed, and he is putting my pants back on,” she describes.
“What do we mean by an episodic relationship? HAS”
The host also said she was “speechless” and “absolutely stunned” by the statements of one of the artist’s lawyers, Céline Lasek. “Indeed, there was an episodic and consensual relationship between them. She was 16 years old and at the time, nothing prohibited a relationship between a minor and an adult over 15 years old,” the lawyer previously indicated on Franceinfo.
“What do we mean by an episodic relationship? I saw him once when I met him, once in his apartment on rue de Jussieu and the number of times I was forced to receive him on my television shows,” assures Flavie Flament. “I am absolutely formal; I have never had any kind of relationship with Patrick Bruel.”
Patrick Bruel, targeted by several complaints of rape, one of which was filed by Flavie Flament, reaffirmed on Sunday that he “never forced” a woman to have sexual relations. The singer and actor has ruled out leaving the stage. This Monday, the Nanterre public prosecutor’s office told Le Parisien that it had reopened an investigation into rape which had been closed in 2022, confirming information from Elle magazine.
