American journalist and political activist Candace Owens has announced the publication of an investigation into the wife of French President Emmanuel Macron, Brigitte Macron. On her social media, Owens stated that she has evidence that Brigitte Macron allegedly never existed and that the wife of the French president is a man. The materials are expected to be published on January 30.
Owens claims that she has conducted her own investigation and is ready to present the collected data to the general public. The journalist also sent Emmanuel Macron a list of 21 questions for a "fair and balanced interview." The questions concern the biography of Brigitte Macron, in particular, her youth and professional career. Owens asks Macron and his wife to provide photographs and evidence from their school and student life.
The journalist pays special attention to the beginning of the relationship between Emmanuel and Brigitte Macron. According to her, the French president met his future wife when he was 15 years old, and Brigitte, who worked as a teacher, was 39. Owens claims that there is no evidence in the public space confirming Brigitte's existence before these events. She also asked Brigitte Macron's acquaintances to provide additional photographs and information.
This is not the first time that Brigitte Macron has become the subject of rumors and conspiracy theories. In 2024, the French president publicly commented on such statements for the first time, calling them "false information and fabricated stories." Macron emphasized that such accusations not only affect his personal life, but also damage the country's public image.
