Former TV columnist Hapsatou Sy has been declared personally bankrupt for a period of ten years. This decision was handed down by the Nanterre commercial court in February. She is accused of "serious management failures" and of failing to keep accounts for her company Résilience productions, which has been in judicial liquidation since 2021.
The company has accumulated liabilities of nearly 600,000 euros. Among the debts are more than 220,000 euros owed to the tax authorities, 40,000 euros in unpaid rent, and 50,000 euros in Urssaf contributions. The court also accuses Hapsatou Sy of having diverted assets from Résilience productions to another of her companies, Atypic Beauty World, without financial compensation.
Hapsatou Sy, the partner of Vincent Cerutti, is contesting this decision, calling it "disproportionate." She has appealed, claiming that her health problems prevented her from properly managing her company. She faults the liquidator, a certain Christian, for not responding to her requests.
The entrepreneur, also facing financial disputes with her other businesses, is not giving up. She recently launched a new communications consulting company, Le bureau des fourmis. Because of her status, her father is the official manager.
While awaiting the appeal ruling, the lovely Hapsatou remains determined to continue her projects despite the obstacles. She continues to share her difficulties and successes with her many followers on social media.
