These days, everything is magnified very quickly by the media - the slightest slip can turn into a catastrophe.

I am a committed observer. I like staying in the background and seeing what's going on.

I am, and remain, passionate about news.

I will count to 10 before tweeting.

My feeling is that maintaining financial independence is also a healthy way to keep my feet on the ground.

My perception of life is not to ask Francois Hollande, who isn't the father of my children, to support me financially.

In France, a first lady has no status, and therefore she isn't supposed to do anything else.
