Alexandra de Taddeo returns.
The young woman will publish on May 25 at Éditions Privé, an autobiography disguised as a novel.
The one who, with Piotr Pavlenski, brought down Benjamin Griveaux, then candidate for mayor of Paris in 2020 under the colors of the presidential majority, recounts his loves in detail and without sparing anything.
A sulphurous story, warns the publisher, in which a named "Benjamin" holds a good place.
For the time being, the young woman must appear, on June 28, before the Paris Criminal Court, for “
invasion of the intimacy of private life
”.
She will be judged at the same time as her companion Piotr Pavlenski who, in February 2020, broadcast intimate videos of the candidate on the internet.
To justify himself, the Russian artist was content with this message: “
[Benjamin Griveaux] is someone who constantly relies on family values, who says he wants to be the mayor of families and always quotes as an example his wife and children,
he declared.
But he does just the opposite.
I don't mind people having the sexuality they want […], but they have to be honest.
He wants to be the leader of the town, and he lies to the voters.
I now live in France, I am Parisian, it is important for me.

Even if Piotr Pavlenski assumes the disclosure of the videos, Alexandra de Taddeo is largely involved.
In 2018, she began to receive sexual messages from Benjamin Griveaux, not yet a candidate for mayor of Paris.
In 2020, in the middle of the municipal campaign, she transmits all of these scabrous exchanges to her companion who decides to publish them.
Faced with the scandal, Benjamin Griveaux, then a figure of Macronie, decided to retire from political life, before filing a complaint against the young woman and her spouse.
The two lovers are placed under judicial supervision, after a tough arrest.
They are prohibited from meeting until further notice.
