While the flagship host of M6 has been shaken for several weeks by accusations of domestic violence and a preliminary investigation has been opened in order to determine the veracity of the facts, the magazine Libération carried out its own investigation among his professional entourage. An investigation which brought to light several quite disturbing testimonies from former collaborators.
It all started when three former companions of Stéphane Plaza decided to testify against the host by accusing him of domestic violence with Médiapart. Disturbing accusations which gave his employers a lot of trouble, including the M6 group which spoke out following this controversy while deciding not to dismiss the host before the results of two internal investigations. Shocking revelations in which the three former companions of Stéphane Plaza indicated “ having been the target of verbal and psychological violence (humiliation, denigration, threats) and, for two of them, physical attacks “.
Shortly after, the host immediately denied these accusations through his lawyer, Hélène Plumet who spoke in the press denouncing “ totally extrapolated, even false, allegations” as well as “fanciful accusations“. The lawyer also explained that all this had pushed her client “to file a criminal complaint for harassment and cyberstalking in June of this year“. A situation which was taken seriously by the Paris prosecutor’s office which opened a preliminary investigation since October 10 for “violence against spouse» after receiving two letters from two different women.

At the slightest annoyance (…), you can be removed from a shoot for a day or more. » Added to this are other testimonies highlighting the numerous bullying of the presenter on the sets.
