Macron will present “scientific evidence” before the US court to prove that his wife Brigitte is a woman, in the process with a star shop

The Macron spouses filed a lawsuit against the conservative star Candace Owens, who intensely promoted the idea that the president's wife had been born a man. The president and his wife claim that Owens “ignored all the credible evidence that denied his theory, writes BBC.

Emmanuel Macron and his wife, Brigitte, intend to present photographic and scientific evidence to an American court to prove that she is a woman.

Their lawyer said that the documentation will be presented in a slander process that they have filed for conservative influence Candace Owens, after promoting the idea that Brigitte Macron was born a man.

Owens's lawyers responded with a rejection motion.

The Macron family lawyer, Tom Clare, told the BBC that Brigitte Macron was “incredibly affected” by statements, who also distracted the attention of the French president.

“I do not want to suggest that this somehow removed from the game. But, like anyone who juggles with your family career and life, when your family is attacked, this affects you. And he is not immune to this because he is the president of a country,” said the lawyer.

Clare said that there will be “testimonies of experts who will be of a scientific nature” and, although it has not revealed, at this stage, their exact nature, said that the spouses are prepared to demonstrate fully, “both generically and specific”, that the accusations are false.

“It is incredibly upsetting to think that you have to obey, to present this type of evidence,” he said.

Asked if the Macron family will provide photos with pregnant brigitte and raising their children, Clare replied that they exist and will be presented in court, where there are rules and standards.

Owens, a former commentators for the US Conservative Daily Wire, who has millions of social networks, has repeatedly promoted the idea that Brigitte Macron is a man.

In March 2024, she stated that she would put into play the “whole professional reputation” for this statement.

The accusation appeared years ago on the Internet, especially in a 2021 YouTube video made by French bloggers Amandine Roy and Natacha Rey.

The Macron family initially won a slander process in France against Roy and Rey in 2024, but the decision was annulled in 2025 for freedom of expression. The Macron family challenged the decision.

In July, Macron spouses filed a lawsuit against Owens in the United States. They claim that she “ignored all the credible evidence that contradicted her statement, in favor of promoting some conspiracy theories.

In August, Emmanuel Macron explained to the French magazine Paris Match why they decided to file an action in justice.

“It is about defending my honor! Because it is an absurdity. It is a person who knew very well that he had false information and acted in order to cause damage, in the service of an ideology and having links with far right leaders,” he said.
