Transgender jokes about Brigitte Macron: The French president criticizes, denounces and accuses

class=”sc-cffd1e67-0 iQNQmc”>

This time it’s too much. Emmanuel Macron (46) has finally answered all those who have been mocking his wife on the internet for years by claiming – with videos and blatant lies as proof – that his wife Brigitte is transgender. To give a certain solemnity to his answer, the French President formulated it during the ceremony of including voluntary abortion in the Constitution, after Parliament voted for it at the Congress on Monday, March 4, at the Palace of Versailles.

“The worst thing there is is false information and made-up scenarios, with people who ultimately believe in them and who harass you, even in your private life,” said Emmanuel Macron on this symbolic day in two respects. Because he enshrined the right to abortion in the French Constitution. And because the award ceremony took place on Friday, March 8, International Women’s Day.

Brigitte Macron was Emmanuel’s teacher

Yes, too much is too much and the legal system must do its job now. Brigitte Macron has been the subject of numerous rumors since her husband was elected president in May 2017. First of all, because of the age difference between the two spouses (she is 70 years old, he is 46), who met when the Head of State was a young student at the high school in Amiens where Brigitte Auzière taught, named after her first husband, died in 2020 at the age of 68.

The wildest rumors have been fueled by people like Delphine Jégousse, a psychic and YouTuber from Normandy, whose videos supposedly explain the first lady of gender reassignment in France. Brigitte Macron as transgender: Social networks are full of these accusations, to which the French president has now responded. “We must use the law and justice against this machismo,” he announced, calling for the strengthening of digital public order in social networks. “A beautiful place to express the craziest things,” which he still sees as “without rules.”

The problem for Emmanuel Macron and his wife is that the justice system has partially come to a standstill. In February 2022, Brigitte Macron filed a lawsuit twice against two women – including Delphine Jégousse – who were allegedly behind the transphobic rumors about her. One for “violation of respect for private life and the right to one’s own image”. The second for “public defamation”. The first lawsuit was quashed by the court in Paris on March 9, 2023 due to “poor presentation of the facts”. The second led to the conviction of the two accused women at first instance in February 2023 and subsequently on appeal in June 2023.

The president in the legal arena

One of the most viral sequences on the Internet, denounced by the Macrons and used by the judiciary as evidence of “defamation”, was an interview circulated online in which the First Lady’s haters talked about surgical procedures that Brigitte Macron had reportedly undergone. They claimed she was not the mother of her three children and gave personal information about her brother.

The president’s actions this week to guarantee the independence of the judiciary illustrate the ongoing family offensive a month before Brigitte Macron’s birthday on April 13. A few days ago, her daughter, lawyer Tiphaine Auzière (40), published her first novel ‘Assises’, in which she addresses the subject of domestic violence. The book is dedicated to her father-in-law, Emmanuel Macron, who is only a few years older than her: “To Emmanuel, who showed me that nothing is impossible.”

Tiphaine Auzière, word in defense

In the magazine Paris Match, she defended the presidential couple and said about the private life of Brigitte and Emmanuel Macron, who married on October 20, 2007 in the northern French seaside resort of Le Touquet, where the first lady has a family home: “I have a lot to say about it human life Nature has learned […] The attacks, the slander, the judgments. We weren’t in the age of social media yet, but we lived in a small town. Everyone knew everything.”

To date, the accusatory videos have not been removed from the Internet and social networks. They are especially viral on the TikTok network.
