Overview
- Legrand opened her latest broadcast by reading a statement apologizing to Fantino and his family for harm to their honor.
- She described her past remark as "out of place" and said she hopes to leave the episode behind.
- The apology refers to a 2018 program in which guest Natacha Jaitt insinuated Fantino’s involvement in a minors-abuse investigation in football.
- Fantino continues a civil and commercial lawsuit against Legrand and producer Nacho Viale, alleging reputational damage and lost international contracts.
- His lawyer says he now seeks financial compensation after initially wanting only a public apology, and it remains unclear whether the new apology will affect the case.
