Brigitte Macron to offer ‘scientific evidence’ proving she is female amid U.S. lawsuit

Owens wrote on X, 'I stake my entire professional reputation on the fact that Brigitte Macron is in fact a man.'

The president of France, Emmanuel Macron, and his wife, Brigitte Macron, will bring scientific evidence to a U.S. court to prove that Brigette is female in a defamation case they filed against a prominent U.S. media personality.

The couple’s lawyer says the French president and his wife will present the court documents to fight claims made about Brigitte’s biological sex by U.S. right-wing political commentator and influencer Candace Owens — who alleged that Brigitte Macron was born male.

Owen’s lawyers have moved to dismiss the claim, the BBC reported.

Meanwhile, the Macrons’ lawyer, Tom Clare, told the outlet that Brigitte found Owens’ claims “incredibly upsetting” and said they were a “distraction” to her husband.

“I don’t want to suggest that it somehow has thrown him off his game. But just like anybody who is juggling a career and a family life as well, when your family is under attack, it wears on you. And he’s not immune from that because he’s the president of a country,” he said.

“Expert testimony that will come out that will be scientific in nature.”

He did not divulge the details of the evidence, the BBC said, but assured that the couple were prepared to show “both generically and specifically” that Owens’ allegations are false.

“It is incredibly upsetting to think that you have to go and subject yourself, to put this type of proof forward,” he said.
