French President Macron Files Lawsuit Against Candace Owens for Claiming His Wife Is a Man

French President Emmanuel Macron has filed a lawsuit against podcaster Candace Owens over her repeated claims that his wife, Brigitte Macron, is a man.  Which by the way she has proven to be a fact in her extensive episodes on it all. The lawsuit, filed Wednesday morning in the Superior Court of the State of Delaware, describes Owens’ claims as “devastating lies” and states that the podcast host “disregarded all credible evidence disproving her claim in favor of platforming known conspiracy theorists and proven defamers.”In 2024, Owens—then a host at The Daily Wire—boldly stated that she would stake her “entire professional reputation” on Brigitte Macron being a man. Since then, Owens has repeatedly insisted that the French first lady was born a man. She even launched an eight-episode series called “Becoming Brigitte” to further examine the baseless conspiracy theory.  Continued below the vid clip

From the lawsuit: “This is nothing new for Owens. She has built a brand on provocation, not truth. Owens labels herself as an independent ‘investigative journalist’ while routinely peddling misinformation under the guise of legitimate reporting. She has promoted a range of conspiracy theories, including anti-vaccine falsehoods, long-debunked antisemitic tropes such as blood libel, and Holocaust distortion—going so far as to dismiss the atrocities of Josef Mengele’s medical experiments as mere ‘propaganda.’ Her content is not intended to inform but to inflame and attract attention through sensationalism and conspiracy theories.
The Macron family, represented by the high-profile American law firm Clare Locke, is seeking damages and has demanded a jury trial. A spokesman for Owens told Mediaite that she would respond to the suit on Wednesday’s episode of her podcast.“Candace will be officially responding to this on her podcast today,” the spokesman said, “as we are just learning about this in the press.”While the lawsuit portrays Owens’ claims as harmful and unfounded, conservative voices, including Owens herself, have pushed back aggressively, framing the legal action as an attempt to silence free speech and investigative journalism.

Owens has long maintained that her assertions are backed by evidence, citing inconsistencies in Brigitte Macron’s public records and family history. In a recent post, she celebrated a French court ruling that acquitted journalists Natacha Rey and Amandine Roy of defamation for similar claims, stating, “Piers Morgan owes me $150,000 and I am ready to collect. It was never defamation. It was a witch hunt. Legally speaking, the only proof Brigitte Macron is a woman is her word that she is. There is tons of proof however, that she lived as a man before ‘becoming Brigitte’.”

This ruling, from July 10, 2025, overturned a prior conviction, which Owens hailed as validation of her series. Owens has repeatedly mocked legal threats from the Macrons, viewing them as desperate efforts to suppress scrutiny. In one instance, she shared, “President Emmanuel Macron sends me another STRONGLY-WORDED legal letter. “

She argues that the Macrons’ refusal to provide concrete proof—such as undergoing a psychiatric exam or releasing full documentation—only fuels suspicion. “Brigitte Macron is refusing a psychiatric exam. She has also sent the Italian police on journalist Xavier Poussard,” Owens posted, highlighting what she sees as intimidation tactics.

From a conservative perspective, this lawsuit exemplifies how global elites weaponize the courts against dissenting voices, especially those challenging establishment narratives. Owens positions herself as a truth-seeker, unafraid of backlash. In a message to a French judge overseeing a related appeal, she accused Brigitte’s lawyer of lying under oath: “Brigitte Macron’s lawyer, Jean Ennochi, has lied to you under oath. I have absolutely NOT been prosecuted, nor has Xavier Poussard. Ms. Ennochi lies as boldly as her client. In America, one cannot be prosecuted for telling the truth.”

She further tied the controversy to broader issues, like domestic dynamics in the Macron household, referencing viral footage of Brigitte allegedly slapping Emmanuel: “Emmanuel Macron has been abused by this dude since he was in grade school.” Owens claims such incidents, dismissed by the Macrons as “play-fighting,” reveal deeper truths. Conservatives argue that Owens’ “Becoming Brigitte” series, which has garnered millions of views, exposes media bias and censorship. She recently teased the lawsuit on her show: “It’s official! Brigitte is now suing the author of ‘Becoming Brigitte’ for ‘cyberbullying.’ Am I next?!”

This defiant stance resonates with supporters who see the suit as proof of her hitting a nerve. Owens has also connected the story to international politics, suggesting Macron’s personal issues delayed peace talks with Russia, only resolved after her reporting: “Following my report of Macron delaying Russia peace talks over his ‘wife’, Macron put on his big boy pants and called Vladimir Putin.” Ultimately, Owens counters the defamation narrative by emphasizing court victories and public interest: “It’s a dude! French court rules against Brigitte Macron’s defamation claims.”

She insists the burden of proof lies with the Macrons, not her, and vows to continue her investigations, undeterred by what she calls a “witch hunt.”
