I built my entire life on the idea of independence.

I've shared the fate of many working mothers; I felt guilty like them.

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

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

I will count to 10 before tweeting.

I am, and remain, passionate about news.

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