Life and career
editChantal Nobel is mostly known for having played the main female role of Florence Berg in the French successful television series Châteauvallon. After having participated at the Dakar Rally with Georges Groine, her career brutally ended on 28 April 1985. After the broadcast of an episode of the television program Champs-Élysées, she was victim of a terrible car accident in a Porsche 924 Carrera GT driven by the singer Sacha Distel, during a trip to the village of Maltaverne, a small village located next to Tracy-sur-Loire.[1]
After six weeks in a coma, her face grievously injured and disabled for life, she left the media to go to the South of France, the series Châteauvallon ending at the same time. She filed a lawsuit against Sacha Distel,[2] who was then sentenced to one year in prison for involuntary injuries.[3] During her hospitalization in 1985, three paparazzi entered her hospital room to take pictures of her against her will. The affair was followed with a condemnation of the paparazzi. The jurisprudence of the Court of Appeal of Paris on 17 March 1986, expanded the notion of domicile respect, indicating that the hospital room was considered as the private domicile of the patient during the recovery.[4]
