At the front rows in front of the M 6 stand at the agricultural show, Angelina, tears in the eyes, awaits Karine the merchant, the star host of “Love is in the meadow”, whose season 20 is being filmed for the six. This Wednesday, this former 41 -year -old human relations official in full professional retraining rose at 4 am to see “her female model”. Behind the barriers, the Sarthoise waits, patiently, and watches to see it with a pack of macaroons, camouflaged in a pocket of its handbag. “I did not have time to go get him a bouquet of flowers, I am sorry, I will try to bring it to him tomorrow,” she breathes, in tears.
Like Angelina, there are several hundred visitors to throw themselves on the host, whose visit has taken on triumph in the aisles of the Porte de Versailles, in Paris (XVE). “I take my annual dose of love every time I come here,” she laughs, with her high-lined voice and her arms full of gifts. Sweat for this exercise for years, this new dive in agricultural land has a special flavor this year for Karine Le Marchand for two reasons.
