Céline Landreau will take over as host of RTL's morning show starting in June 2026

Céline Landreau will succeed Thomas Sotto as host of RTL's morning show starting June 8, 2026. This appointment marks a major change in the schedule of France's leading general-interest radio station. The journalist will take the reins of this strategic time slot, listened to every morning by millions of listeners between 6 and 9 a.m. Thomas Sotto, who has hosted the show for several years, is therefore handing over the reins to the woman who is preparing to take on this significant challenge.

An experienced journalist at the helm

Céline Landreau has a wealth of journalistic experience that will enable her to ensure a smooth transition. Her arrival at the helm of the morning show marks a significant step in her career and reflects the confidence that RTL's management places in her. The morning show remains an essential program for French people looking to catch up on the news before starting their day. The format combines political interviews, national and international news, and a variety of segments.

This change in presentation comes at a time when general-interest radio stations are constantly seeking to refresh their offerings to maintain their audience. RTL retains its position as a leading news source and is counting on this new format to continue its success. Listeners will discover Céline Landreau's style starting in early summer 2026, a period often conducive to changes in the French media landscape.
