Greg Guillotin, known for his hidden camera pranks, notably "The Worst Intern ," is facing a complaint filed by his ex-partner for domestic violence and harassment. The young woman, now 27, accuses him of repeated physical violence, as well as humiliation, insults, denigration, and a surveillance system in their home. The alleged incidents took place over several years.
The complaint was filed on June 17, 2026, with the public prosecutor in Évry, Essonne. This Friday, September 4, the prosecutor's office clarified that no investigative service had yet been assigned to the case. Greg Guillotin remains, at this stage, presumed innocent.
A relationship that began when she was 19 years old
The young woman explains that she met Greg Guillotin on social media when she was 19 years old, while he was 35. Their relationship reportedly lasted from 2019 to 2026. According to her, the first instances of physical violence occurred in April 2022, in the couple's apartment in the Paris region. The complainant then describes several incidents that allegedly took place in France as well as during trips abroad.
The accusations come as several media personalities have recently faced allegations of violence in their private lives. Jimmy Mohamed, in particular, was accused of domestic violence by his wife , allegations the doctor and television presenter denies. France Télévisions has since decided to remove him from its programming.
Kicks in the Maldives, a slap in Morocco, and a punch to the eye
In her complaint, Greg Guillotin's former partner describes several particularly specific instances of alleged physical violence. She claims to have been kicked in December 2022, while the couple was in the Maldives. The following year, during a trip to Morocco , she accuses the YouTuber of slapping her and kicking her several times, as well as throwing a bowl of cereal at her face.
During that same trip, Greg Guillotin allegedly tricked her into believing he had canceled her return flight. The young woman also recounts another incident in 2024 , during which she claims to have been punched in the eye . These events remain to be legally established. The complaint is now in the hands of the Évry public prosecutor's office.
Cameras installed in their home
Beyond the physical violence she denounces, Greg Guillotin's ex-partner also describes a system of control and surveillance that gradually became established in their daily lives.
Cameras were reportedly installed in their home during the year preceding their separation. Their installation was initially justified by the need to monitor a tradesman who was carrying out work in the house.
The young woman claims, however, that Greg Guillotin then used these cameras to remotely monitor her actions. He allegedly criticized her for resting or not completing certain tasks as he wished.
The plaintiff describes more broadly years marked, according to her, by insults, humiliations and denigration, which she associates with a situation of control.
"Years of beatings, insults, and denigration"
Jean-Baptiste Riolacci, the young woman's lawyer, stated that his client had submitted all the evidence she had to support her complaint to the prosecutor's office. The lawyer declared: "My client has shown great courage in denouncing years of beatings, insults, and denigration by her former partner."
The young woman also explains that she decided to take legal action out of fear that the behavior she attributes to her former partner could be repeated with other women.
Greg Guillotin has not yet responded to the accusations
Aged 43, Greg Guillotin first gained notoriety for his hidden camera videos and pranks, before achieving significant fame with "The Worst Intern ." His YouTube channel now boasts approximately 4,5 million subscribers. When contacted about the complaint filed against him, the YouTuber declined to comment. As of Friday, September 4, the Évry prosecutor's office indicated that no investigative service had yet been assigned to the case. The accusations made by his former partner have therefore not yet been the subject of any legal action. Greg Guillotin benefits from the presumption of innocence.
