Between Philippe Bouvard and Didier Bourdon, it's a falling out that has lasted for decades. And who is still very present… Even if the years have helped, the actor has changed his tune. Especially recently, when he heard that the legendary host was going through a complicated period. Forced to move in a wheelchair, he has experienced several health problems.
“I'm doing as well as you can when you enter your 96th year, he confided to RTL. I'm a bit soft. You have to wish me a few more quiet years.” But Philippe Bouvard's life took a turn a few years ago. “I became blind about 8 years ago, one day when I was at the Monaco casino. Suddenly, the big chandelier under which I was standing turned completely black. It never regained its color. My hearing decreased a lot, but there are devices that make up for the shortcomings, in part”, he specified.

“Getting old – and getting old considerably, because beyond 95, it's still a small feat anyway – well, it doesn't come without a handicap and without the fact that people look at you with different eyes and hear you with different ears”, he added on the radio.

An old story that was settled in court. “It's not honest for a 55-year-old man, well-established in the media, to hold it against us after two years at the Bouvard Theatre because we decided to become independent,” he rewound.
They had to pay “an astronomical sum” to Philippe Bouvard
“He ruined us, promised to make us miserable. At the time, we were known as the Five with Smaïn and Seymour Brussel. We were starting to perform in small venues and the four organizers took advantage of our notoriety, without informing us, to add, under the posters stuck up in the streets: 'Seen at the Bouvard Theater'. Who took advantage of this to stick a trial, considering his name and his & … They had to pay him “an astronomical sum at the time for these young artists”. Decades later, the resentment is still strong. But Didier Bourdon is even more worried about the health of Philippe Bouvard, who has just celebrated his 96th birthday and has decided to retire from the airwaves.
