Oups! Former French First Lady Valérie Trierweiler called "Rottweiler" on Gabon Television

France's former girlfriend has just been humiliated by a news reader's Freudian slip in TV gaffe.

After French President François Hollande dumped Valérie Trierweiler, a newsreader for Gabon Television mistakenly referred to the former French First Lady as Valérie Rottweiler  in a live news broadcast.

The embarrasing blunder has created a buzz on the social media networks sparking laughs and parody videos. Trierweiler was first dubbed "The Rottweiler", the huge agressive german dog, by her critics in April 2012, shortly before Hollande was elected, when she said “I have a character, they cannot muzzle me”.

Trierweiler has displayed her own fiery temper on numerous occasions, not least of all when she learned of Hollande’s affair with the actress Julie Gayet almost three weeks ago. She is said to have gone on the rampage, smashing up antique furniture before checking herself into a hospital for eight days, suffering from stress. 

The relationship officially ended last Sunday, but Ms Trierweiler has been allowed to complete one last charity trip to India with presidential staff including a bodyguard. She is now expected to stay away from the Elysee Palace, and will be living alone in the flat she once shared with Mr Hollande in Paris’s 15th arrondissement. Culled..
