In 2014, the magazine Closer revealed the relationship between François Hollande and Julie Gayet. At that time the president was still in a relationship with Valérie Trierweiler. Their love story had caused a huge scandal, especially with the photos of François Hollande visiting Julie Gayet on a scooter. This extra-marital affair had sparked a war between François Hollande and his ex-girlfriend, who had published his truths in an autobiographical book entitled Thank you for this moment.
