• Find out why Dorothée chose to prioritize her career over family life in this moving televised tribute.

This Friday, January 24, 2025, TF1 has decided to dedicate a special evening à the host Dorothée. During the 80s, this pretty blonde full of energy hosted Le Club Dorothée, which had such an impact on French children. With her legendary good humor and her recognizable tone of voice, she has seen her fans grow, who are still nostalgic for her show today.

Very discreet about her private life, Dorothée has never looked into her romantic relationships. But now in 2021, Jacky, his former sidekick à television, reveals that she allegedly married in secret. If it does not indicate the identity of the person, of the man of her life, our colleagues from Public will indicate that it is a man called Vincent Gaudel, 17 years her junior and who was one of her biggest fans. 

Why did Dorothy& eacute;e did she not have children ?

The one who lives today in Normandy, never had children. A choice fully assumed by Dorothée who had confided on his life at a hundred miles an hour. With 30 hours of broadcasting per week of the Club Dorothée,the host was also 8 hours a week live.

A daily life that was not compatible, according to her, with a family life. “It was career or family life. I chose the former. I couldn't have both. And what didn't happen, didn't happen, I accept,” she confided to our colleagues at Gala. “I only remember the good times, I try my best anyway. Ostrich policy, you might say ? And why not…”. 

A special evening on TF1 in honor of the former host

This Friday, January 24, the former presenter, Dorothée, now 71 years old, will be able to meet her audience again. Indeed, during this evening hosted by Nikos Aliagas, viewers will see key images of the Club Dorothée and “its cocktail of sketches, songs, charity operations, mostly Japanese cartoons like Dragon Ball and series ’rose water”, &agrave the image of Hélène and the boys, of First kisses.

One thing is sure, this evening promises to be full of colors and especially emotion. A nice trip down memory lane.
