The M6 ​​group announced, Friday September 22, the opening of an internal investigation concerning its flagship host Stéphane Plaza, after accusations of violence from three of his ex-partners. “An internal investigation was opened following the Mediapart paper in order to raise certain points which would not have been raised”said a group official. “This is a classic HR procedure”he added, without further comment.

In its investigation, the Mediapart information site, citing the testimonies of three of the host’s ex-partners, explains having “brought together numerous elements and stories testifying to mistreatment carried out by the real estate agent popularized by M6 on three of his companions: humiliation, threats, verbal violence and, for two of them, physical”.

The host formally contested these accusations. His lawyers denounce “defamatory and insulting accusations”. They believe that “Mediapart acted as a relay for three women who undermine dignity” by Stéphane Plaza, and who “are covered by a criminal complaint that he filed [contre elles] for harassment and cyberharassment”.
