Operated in April 2022 for a cancerous tumor, Arthur Sadoun confided in about his illness, against which he is committed today. A speech that left his wife Anne-Sophie Lapix in awe.
Usually secret about her private life, Anne-Sophie Lapix makes a rare secret. In April 2022, the husband of the journalist from France 2, Arthur Sadoun, was operated on for “to have a small cancerous tumor removed from the neck”. A disease that made him lose a lot of weight, but that he wants to talk about today in order to raise public awareness through the Working with Cancer movement, in particular to free up employees to speak. And for good reason, in business, cancer is sometimes considered a taboo subject, assures the president of Publicis, who confided in the columns of Society mid-January that, “from a personal point of view, it exposes your family”while “from a professional point of view, it shows a vulnerability in an ultra-competitive industry”.
A speech all the more courageous for Arthur Sadoun that he did not hide that this cancerous tumor had been caused by a papillomavirus, a sexually transmitted infection. “I don’t see why I should be ashamed. What’s wrong with me? Having had sex between the ages of 20 and 30? If that’s it, I let prudish minds take offense”he thus confided to the Parisianarousing the admiration of his wife, Anne-Sophie Lapix. “I’m not used to talking about my private life, but it’s a fight that I find admirable. There’s a kind of laying bare when you talk about something as intimate as illness”thus entrusted the journalist to Tele-Leisure.

Anne-Sophie Lapix “admiring” in front of her husband
For the presenter of the JT of France 2, it was “courageous” on the part of her husband to talk about her illness so freely, in order to “shake things up”. “He transformed this ordeal into a life lesson and a desire to be useful. I admire that”, concluded the mother of two children. In a relationship since 2008, Anne-Sophie Lapix and Arthur Sadoun got married two years later in Paris. “We both have the same priorities. And he’s an essential support. He tells me interesting things that I don’t think about. It’s very valuable because our brains don’t work the same way! He opens me up to other perspectives, and vice versa. Our discussions focus on our professional choices and our working relationships. He does not know misogyny and is very respectful of my autonomy”she had confided in particular.
