Vicky Hadjivassiliou gave a full interview and talked about her TV career, her first steps and the professional bullying she has experienced.
A guest on the show "Open", the presenter of the show "Pame Paketo" spoke without hesitation about all aspects of her life.
Initially, she referred to her marriage, which has been going strong for 31 years. "The thing is, you can never be in your place for that many years. People change, alas, if we don't change over the years. You have to have the patience and the talent if you want to balance," she said.
She went on to explain that she prefers to keep her personal life out of the spotlight. "From me, my personal life is protected. I never gave my children to the public, I never opened my house to be photographed on the covers. It was my principle. I may have lost a lot, but it was my choice. No matter what I have done, I always find Giannis in line," she said.
About the beginning of her career and her first steps in presenting, Vicky Hadjivassiliou describes: "I already had the ambition in me. When they told me that I was hired in radio, my heart fluttered. I knew I was on the road I had to travel. I owe the fact that I got into television to Zina Koutselini. She saw me presenting the then Women of the Year and said to me: "You have to entertain, let's make an appointment. It was with John Lazio, they showed me some things, but I wasn't interested. Only the letter you got I said I would do. They tell me: Do you really want this? I saw that something substantial was happening there. I wasn't interested in doing television just to do and exist in it. The letter eventually became a package, it started successfully and ended that way, people loved it."
For the end of her show, Vicky Hadjivassiliou explained that it was something that hurt her a lot. "I couldn't help but get emotional at the end of the show. It hurt when it was over. It was a big part of my life. I was on Alpha for 17 years, I grew up there, it was my second home. The new management didn't want the package," he explained.
Finally, he referred to the professional intimidation he had received. "I had too many races at work. There were people who spoke insultingly about me publicly through my channel. I suffered workplace bullying from a superior. I was accused of leaving my children and coming to Athens, I was told about my age. I spoke to the Public Relations Manager and said: restrain him. It's a disgrace what he's doing to the channel itself. There is toxicity, competition. Inevitably, when the viability of the show depends on it, I was interested in the numbers," he said."
