Yannick Jadot tells himself in a confession interview and talks about his partner Isabelle, who had to give up her activity once their union was made public.
Which teenager was the presidential candidate? Bachelor at 16, Yannick Jadot has not made a choice between studies and love. “In college and high school, girls are important!” He smiled in a confessional interview with “Closer” magazine. “I skipped school several times to join friends with my moped and I preferred to sit in the back row with the fun. It allowed me to write letters or little notes to the girls…”

“Kissing a girl on Hotel California is fantastic!”
Was the teenager Jadot successful with girls? “I’m not going to complain,” he replies with a laugh. “The best moment in the booms is the slows! Kissing a girl on “Hotel California” is fantastic! In addition, the song lasts six minutes,” he recalls, a bit nostalgic.
The green suitor at the Elysée Palace has been in a relationship with journalist Isabelle Saporta for a few years. Each has children on his side. “I know that sometimes it’s hard to bear the name of Jadot”, he explains about his two children, born from a first marriage. “Like when a teacher tells them about me because they saw me on TV. Whether it’s good or bad, it doesn’t matter, children don’t like their parents being mentioned.
“Heavy debates” and “bear side”
“But the hardest thing right now is for my partner,” he continues. Isabelle Saporta held a column every day in the morning of RTL, she had to resign once her union with Yannick Jadot was made public. “It was extremely brutal. After the 2019 European elections, we wanted to formalize our relationship. It’s normal for her to be by my side. The next day, RTL asked him to leave. Publicly, Isabelle remains a journalist. She has never refrained from criticizing environmentalists and she owes me nothing professionally. It is unfair because, despite her career, she is reduced to the status of Madame Jadot, ”he regrets. “It’s hard. For someone who has always fought for his independence, who built himself alone, without any piston, it is difficult to be permanently sent back to his companion and to suffer the consequences.
They sometimes have “heated debates”, he still confesses. “She tells me frankly what she thinks of what I do (…). She is capable of being very tough and very cash. Frankness is at the heart of our relationship and that is what makes us strong.” The couple who define themselves as “PostMeToo” do not live under the same roof. “We each have busy lives and Isabelle largely assumes her daughters. We try to see each other as much as possible without it becoming an obligation. The situation is very suitable for the MEP who recognizes a “bear side” and the need to be alone with himself sometimes.
