Begin Again with Davina McCall · Gisèle Pelicot: After Everything That Happened... I Didn’t Expect To Fall In Love Again | Pt. 2 · 25 Jun 2026 podcast

They were downstream, I was upstream, but it was really complicated for everybody at the time, and of course a deflagration that really carried everything away, because suffering, in fact, is no longer a family.

We all try to protect each other, and then to see how we can rebuild...

We needed time.

We needed a lot of time now.

Our relations have really been much better.

We're united.

We're united more than ever because it really has united us.

But at the same time, at one point, the family exploded.

But fortunately...

Our family is now getting together again.

And I know for some people, the rupture is such that they never get together again.

And that's something also I want people to know.

You've got to be able to respect each other's suffering.

Even when I came back from the police station, I saw those three photographs and I couldn't imagine it was reality.

And so when my children came to see me, because I slept with a friend on the day when the facts were revealed, and then I went back home and my children joined me.

So in the evening, my daughter asked me to speak with her and I knew if I was going to sleep with her, I was going to really collapse.

I didn't want to collapse.

So I slept in the bed of rape because I still felt that it was my bedroom.

It was my area where I felt protected.

I still hadn't realized the horror of what I had undergone in that room.
