Quite discreet on social networks in the last few days, Rosalie Vaillancourt made an ephemeral publication for her approximately 186,000 subscribers, telling them what state she was in. In a photo of herself with her daughter, Marguerite Auger Vaillancourt, she wrote:
“I must confess that I am going through painful and mentally difficult times at the moment. I haven’t posted anything for several days and I’m fragile. But I am very well surrounded. Thank you to my family, my friends.”
“Thank you for all your messages of support, it comes to counterbalance all the hateful messages that we see circulating, and which have a real impact in the lives of people”, she continued.
“Let’s be respectful, this story is difficult and complex for everyone involved.”
The recent report by The Press and 98.5, in which some victims of Julien Lacroix returned to their testimonies and said they regretted having denounced him, seems to leave traces.
Former collaborator of Lacroix, Rosalie Vaillancourt is quoted there, just as she had been in 2020, in the investigation of the To have to. At the time, she said she did not consider herself a victim of Lacroix, but that she had often seen him commit inappropriate gestures.
In the new report by The Press, Rosalie’s former manager, Annie Parizeau, says the young woman has also acted vulgarly in the past.
The day the report was published, Rosalie found herself on the set of the show We’ll tell each other. She assured that she thought she had done the right thing by denouncing Julien Lacroix two years ago, even if certain testimonies of victims seem to have changed since then.
“I hope there’s no girl this morning reading this and thinking, ‘Ah finally I’m going to keep this to myself,'” she wrote on social media.
The comedian ended his story Instagram saying she was starting her shows and filming once more today (Monday) ‘much to my delight’.
