Miss France 2001 explains that if she embodies her subjects, it is because she does not want to "just be a nominee". "It may be a complex linked to Miss France, but I don't want to play with the green plant," she says. "I want to know what I'm talking about and wear this show, which looks like me," added the presenter. Mom of four children, two pairs of twins, she adds: "We find ourselves between mothers, there is a desire to be united."
"I want them to find this strength of character and this selflessness"
In the next issue, published on Thursday, and entitled "Weddings and blended tribes: when the children get involved", Élodie Gossuin goes to meet three families in which the children attend their parents' marriage. During the broadcasts, the presenter met families who moved her, others who made her want to "leave everything to go and live somewhere with their feet in the water". Like "this couple of doctors who abandoned everything to go and open a hotel in Brazil. Or those who set off on a sailboat to go around the world with children six months and three years old". "I would love that. I envy them but I wouldn't be able to," she said.
They also admire these families, who already have twelve children but who say they would love to have twins now. "I want them to find this strength of character and this selflessness that is not given to everyone," she notes. Conversely, Élodie Gossuin confesses complaining "extremely large families and who struggle by wondering if they have made the right choices in life."
