On a positive note, Renaud and Anne are more in love than ever, sharing their first kiss and quickly progressing through their relationship. However, the mood shifts dramatically as Christophe faces an unforeseen crisis in Nouvelle-Aquitaine. Struggling with his feelings for two suitors, the 57-year-old winemaker embarks on a walk with Guillaume, hoping to clarify his emotions. But things take an unexpected turn.
Christophe’s Dilemma: A Choice Between Love and Family
This walk proves to be surprisingly fruitful as Guillaume, a 25-year-old student from Paris, finds the right words to comfort Christophe. The chemistry between them is palpable, leading to their first kiss. “At this moment, I can’t say if I’ve made a decision, but I feel like I have. I can’t really say no to Guillaume, actually,” the farmer shares with the cameras. Just when it seems like a choice has been made, a phone call from Christophe’s son Sylvain changes everything. Sylvain expresses the family’s concerns about the significant age gap with his younger suitor. The message is loud and clear: Christophe’s children see the 32-year age difference as a dealbreaker. Unfortunately, Guillaume overhears part of this conversation, leaving him feeling uneasy. “He wasn’t speaking very well of me, saying that if he chose me, it wouldn’t go well with a lot of people,” Guillaume reveals in a candid interview, prompting him to seek clarification from Christophe about the situation.
Despite desperately wanting to “ignore this age issue” and focus on his feelings, Christophe struggles with the idea of “losing everyone” or being “at odds with his children.” Ultimately, he makes a tough decision: he asks Guillaume to step away from the journey. Tearfully, the student expresses his confusion over Christophe’s children’s reactions and finds it difficult to grasp the situation. “It breaks my heart because just an hour ago, I was kissing him, telling him that I liked him a lot… But I said I wanted something clear, something easy,” Christophe laments, tears streaming down his face. The two men collapse into each other’s arms, while Yann, Christophe’s other suitor, watches in disbelief at the unfolding family drama. After dropping Guillaume off at the train station, Christophe is left in sorrow, apologizing for the pain he caused. Nevertheless, his decision stands firm: he intends to “move forward” with Yann and, despite the heartache, feels a sense of “happiness” within this new path.
