Was the first lady of France actually born a man?
Brigitte Macron is now going to the highest court in France after being “devastated” by a lower court ruling last week that let off two women who claim she’s actually male.
The pair had originally been convicted for spreading false information before the Paris appeals court on Thursday overturned the verdict. The initial ruling ordered the two women to pay $9,300 in damages to Brigitte Macron, and $5,800 to her brother.

France24 reports: “Brigitte Macron filed a libel complaint against the two women after they posted a YouTube video in December 2021, alleging she had once been a man named Jean-Michel Trogneux – who is actually Brigitte Macron’s brother.
“In the video, defendant Amandine Roy, a self-proclaimed spiritual medium, interviewed Natacha Rey, a self-described independent journalist, for four hours on her YouTube channel.
“Rey spoke about the ‘state lie’ and ‘scam’ she claimed to have uncovered that Jean-Michel Trogneux had changed gender to become Brigitte, and then married the future president.”
Jean Ennochi, the first lady’s attorney, told Agence France-Presse on Sunday that her brother was also taking his case to the highest appeals court, the Court de Cassation.
The case has been followed closely by American political commentator Candace Owens, who is among those promoting the notion that Brigitte, 72, is a man.
Owens says she was personally phoned by U.S. President Donald Trump in February when French President Emmanuel Macron was visiting Washington, D.C., and says the commander in chief urged her to stop discussing Brigitte because it was interfering with talks on ending Russia’s war against Ukraine.
In a video she released on June 30, Owens said of Trump’s call: “It is hard to catch my breath to comprehend that four days ago I’m ending a series about Brigitte Macron, and now I’m speaking to the president of the United States and the topic of conversation no matter which way you wanna slice it is about Macron’s wife’s penis. I mean there’s no other way to say it.”
She continued: “I explained to him that she has had this amazing doctor who specializes in transgenderism surgeries or feminization procedures. I’m talking to the president of the United States about this, guys. This is crazy this wacky. … But I’m just trying to get him to understand the truth.
“And then I explained to him why I don’t feel so great about this request, because that’s the more important part.”
“Like you are requesting that I really, and despite your reasoning, which is very sound, that I stop telling the truth. And I said to Trump, and I will be honest, that at that moment I realized that one day this is gonna go into my autobiography and so I got to say something funny, and I just said, I said to him, ‘You know, respectfully, Mr. President, it’s not my fault that he married someone with a penis.’”
