“Very very big bandage”, the ex-Miss France operated on

This December 23, 2024, Maëva Coucke spoke on her Instagram account… from her hospital room. Indeed, Miss France 2018 was hospitalized at the Lille Sud Clinic. The beauty queen explained this passage about billiards. More fear than harm.

What is Maëva Coucke suffering from?

In video, after her operation which fortunately went well, the former Miss Nord-Pas-de-Calais spoke to reassure her subscribers. “I’m out of the operating room, that’s it, my whitlow has been operated on! I still can’t feel my hand (due to the effects of anesthesia, editor’s note)it’s very, very weird. Very very large bandage. I won’t be able to do anything with this hand for a while, I think. In short, a good thing done because it had already been two weeks since I could no longer use this finger” she said, showing her right hand and its impressive bandage.

“It’s very, very embarrassing but there you go… It’s the Christmas gift that life gave me. D-1 before Christmas! But hey, let’s put it into perspective, a whitlow is honestly nothing serious, it’s just annoying because you have to go to the operating room to have an operation. But everything is fine“, she added, with a smile despite everything.

What has become of Maëva Coucke since her election?

The former Miss France 2018 is now 30 years old and we were recently able to see her in the company of the 30 regional candidates for the title of Miss France 2025, during the preparation trip to Ivory Coast. Then, Maëva Coucke was again present at the big evening broadcast on TF1 from the Arena Futuroscope and posed with the winner, Angélique Angarni-Filopon. She is therefore still immersed in the world of misses!

But the young woman, who broke up last spring with her partner François Bonifaci, also lends her name and face to brands. For example, we could see her in campaigns for the Festina watch brand. She is also an influencer and multiplies commercial collaborations with various brands on Instagram.
