In full promotion for her book “I am the woman of the set”, Marie Portolano made a very intimate revelation.
“ Three years ago, I carried the voices of eighteen women who recounted the humiliations and injustices suffered in their editorial offices. Here, I’m talking about 90% of myself, and it’s the first time I’ve revealed myself. This is not an exercise I am comfortable with! “, she confided in comments provided to Elle magazine.
The famous presenter also reveals that she suffered a sexual assault at the age of 17, explaining that this traumatic experience left after-effects. “I hadn’t told anyone about it, not even my family, and I only mention it in the book, but that probably explains why I am so sensitive to violence against women,” she further explained.
“At a very young age, I started countless fights in bars, I was worse than a guy! And, even today, I can’t stand being touched without warning, she admitted. “This book is also so that this anger that is in me is turned towards something useful.”
