French First Lady to Present Scientific Evidence of Her Female Identity in Response to Court Dispute with Candace Owens
In a remarkable turn of events, French First Lady Brigitte Macron is set to present scientific and photographic evidence in a defamation lawsuit against American conservative commentator Candace Owens. The lawsuit, filed in Delaware in July, was initiated in response to a 'campaign of global humiliation' and 'relentless bullying' triggered by Owens' allegations that Macron, born as Brigitte Trogneux, is transgender.
Owens, known for her YouTube videos and podcast episodes, began circulating the conspiracy theory in 2024, claiming that Macron was born a man named Jean-Michel Trogneux, the brother of Macron's husband, Emmanuel. These allegations have been a subject of legal dispute, requiring scientific proof of womanhood.
Emmanuel Macron found the allegations to be a 'distraction' from his duties, while his wife found them 'incredibly upsetting'. Brigitte Macron has previously faced similar rumours in France and won damages against two bloggers who accused her of being transgender.
The lawsuit seeks a jury trial and unspecified damages. The expert who will testify in the court case to refute the transgender allegations has not been named publicly. However, Brigitte Macron's lawyer, Tom Clare, stated that 'scientific expert testimony' will be presented to prove the claims false.
The evidence will show 'both generally and specifically' that the statements are false, as stated by Clare. The scientific proof will not be detailed but will include photographic records, including pictures of Macron while pregnant.
This legal battle is not the first time Macron has been involved in public appearances wearing a blue dress, a choice that has been interpreted as a symbol of her resilience in the face of adversity.
As the case unfolds, the world watches as Macron, a respected figure in French politics, continues to stand up against defamatory claims. For those interested in following the latest developments, Bored Panda invites you to follow their news updates on Google News and Flipboard.com/@our website.
