And she faced an unexpected problem. “I had to adjust the height of Bruce’s chair because it is very big [1,92 m, NDLR]even though I measure 1.64 m. When I sat down in his seat, I almost found myself with the desk under my chin. ! Next to him, we all look small “, laughed Maud Descamps.

It is clear that it fulfills its function brilliantly. The presenter will therefore be able to go on vacation with even more peace of mind.
