According to a report by the British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) on September 18, Macron and his wife Brigitte plan to submit photos and scientific evidence to an American court to prove that Brigitte is a woman. Their lawyers stated that the French president and his wife will present this material in their defamation lawsuit against the far-right internet personality Candace Owens.
The report said that Candace Owens was a former commentator for the American conservative media outlet "The Daily Wire" and has millions of followers on social platforms. She has repeatedly claimed that Brigitte is male, even stating in March 2024 that she would bet her entire professional reputation on the assertion that Brigitte "is actually male."
Tom Claire, the lawyer representing the Macron couple in the case, said that Brigitte was "deeply distressed" by these allegations, which constitute a "distraction" for the president.
Tom Claire said: "I don't want to imply that it affects his state, but like anyone who balances career and family, when your family is attacked, you feel pressure, and the president is no exception." He also mentioned that the Macron couple will provide "scientific expert testimony." Although the specific content cannot be disclosed at this stage, he stated that the couple has made thorough preparations to prove the allegations false.
