In 2021, L'Express reported that she has been advising Éric Zemmour, a friend of her family, in the event of putting his name for the candidacy for the 2022 French presidential election.[8] · [10] L'Obs magazine also claimed she had facilitated meetings between Zemmour and Nicolas Dupont-Aignan, as well as Laurent Wauquiez and Marion Maréchal.[11] In October 2021, she was named as one of Zemmour's campaign directors for his presidential campaign bid and Reconquête party.[12]
