France’s first lady shuns TV return
France’s “first lady” is dropping plans to relaunch a TV career but says she will not quit as a journalist at Paris Match magazine as she wants to raise her children without depending on President Francois Hollande for money.
Valerie Trierweiler, whose debut as a presidential partner was marred when she took a swipe at the woman who had four children with Hollande, said she regretted that faux-pas and was still finding her way.
Career-wise, the twice-divorced mother of three told Ouest France newspaper she was abandoning plans to work again with a TV channel that she left in the run-up to the May 6 election of Hollande, to whom she is not married.
