Frédérique Blast Lamour Est Dans Le Pré Fundraiser Backlash
Frédérique used an Instagram story on 18 May 2026 to push back at criticism of the lamour est dans le pré fundraiser her mother Jocelyne launched for her and Pierre. The dispute sits on top of a public debt crisis that the couple says has reached 1.5 million euros.
Jocelyne’s 7 May Appeal
Jocelyne launched the fundraiser on 7 May 2026, saying the money would help the family find a house to rent in Mont-de-Marsan, cover moving costs and pay the first months of rent. For Pierre and Frédérique, former candidates from season 7, the campaign became a public way to deal with a financial collapse they say will force them to sell their house.
Frédérique said the criticism turned quickly personal. She read out messages including, “La cagnotte, c'est une honte, ils utilisent leur mère,” then responded, “C'est scandaleux quand même ! Comment vous pouvez imaginer que moi j'utiliserais ma mère...”
Frédérique Defends Her Mother
Frédérique also said the backlash upset Jocelyne, who is 83 years old. She quoted her mother saying, “Ils commencent à nous gonfler ! Je ne suis pas gueugueu, je ne suis pas sénile, je ne sucre pas les fraises.” Jocelyne added, “Si ça continue, c'est moi qui vais faire une vidéo pour leur dire qu'ils arrêtent de penser que je suis neuneu et que vous utilisez une femme.”
That line matters because the criticism did not stop at the fundraiser itself. Frédérique said messages were also reaching family members and friends, widening a dispute that started with a payment appeal and turned into a judgment on whether an elderly parent should have stepped in at all.
Mont-de-Marsan Pressure
Frédérique said her mother was not being used and described Jocelyne’s role as practical and voluntary, adding, “elle a trouvé un moyen de se rendre utile et de montrer toute l'affection qu'elle a pour nous, je trouve que c'est admirable.” The couple’s financial problems have been linked to decisions by Pierre and climate-related damage on the family lands in Saint Pastou, where frost destroyed the 2021 and 2022 harvests before drought followed.
For readers following the story, the immediate issue is not another television update but whether the fundraising effort can stay focused on housing costs instead of social-media hostility. Frédérique has already signaled she may make a video with her mother if the attacks continue, and that would push the dispute back into public view rather than letting the fundraiser quietly do its work.
