French comedian and YouTuber Greg Guillotin is facing a rape complaint, according to Le Parisien. The report was published on Monday, September 28, 2026.
The complaint comes alongside separate allegations of domestic violence and harassment made by his former partner. Several French outlets, including Le Monde, 20 Minutes and Orange Actualités, report that Guillotin was placed in garde à vue — French police custody — following that complaint.
RMC reported a statement from his representatives: "He does not seek to evade and intends to assume his responsibilities." The same outlet confirmed the custody placement.
The reports describe the rape complaint as linked to the earlier domestic violence case brought by his ex-partner, though the material available does not detail the specific allegations or the timeline of events.
Guillotin is known in France as a humorist and YouTube creator. The allegations against him have drawn coverage from multiple national news organizations, including Le Parisien, Le Monde, RMC, 20 Minutes and Orange Actualités.
The reports do not indicate what stage the investigation has reached, whether Guillotin has been formally charged, or how he responded to the rape complaint specifically. The custody placement reported by RMC, Le Monde and Orange Actualités relates to the domestic violence and harassment complaint.
What to watch next: whether French prosecutors confirm charges or release Guillotin, and whether his representatives issue a fuller statement addressing the rape complaint.
