Businessman Bernard Tapie bequeathed a mountain of debt. His wife Dominique must now repay nearly 600 million euros. Paris Match conducted the investigation.
She stands straight, as always facing the obstacle. But the vertigo is there. To his widow, Bernard Tapie, who died on October 3, 2021, leaves the memory of an unfailing love. And a chasm. “His obsession was to shelter Dominique, says Hervé Temime, the businessman’s lawyer. He hoped that after his disappearance his creditors would be more lenient. The time has come for the heirs to decide whether or not to accept the succession. But, even in the event of refusal, Dominique Tapie, condemned jointly in 2015, will have to repay the debt.
