Why the President of France has an old wife. Young Macron and his elderly wife: six facts about the new president of France. Spouse

The French love to say that the inauguration is in the United States, and they have a ceremony of the transfer of power. Its protocol has not changed since 1958, with General De Gaulle. The main intrigue: who was called, who was ignored? This time, ex-President Sarkozy was not invited, there were no show business stars, but everyone saw the two daughters of the president's wife from her first marriage. But most importantly, everyone drew attention to the abundance of men under forty, often without ties - classmates and classmates of the new president. Macron trusts them as much as he does his wife.

Where and what is its origin? To find out, you need to travel back 30 years to the north of France. City of Amiens, La Providence Catholic Lyceum. It was here that the very historical meeting took place - him and Bridget. Now everything related to President Macron is collected here. The head teacher found his grades. They were always between 17 and 20: in France there is a 20-point system, that is, he did not fall below the four.

Arnaud Debretagne, class teacher: “He was a brilliant student in all subjects. When the school year began, he already knew half of the program ... And most importantly, he always knew exactly what he wanted, even at a very young age. He set a goal for himself and always achieved it. "

When he was 11–12 years old and everyone ran out to the schoolyard for recess, he did not go with everyone, but came to the principal's office to just talk and ask the necessary questions. He loved the world of adults, those who are older than him, because they answered those questions that a child cannot answer.

In the same lyceum, 15-year-old Emmanuel Macron first met Bridget, where she was the head of the theater studio. Then no one knew about their relationship: it would have been a huge scandal in the Catholic Lyceum. But today is Bridget Macron. She appeared at the ceremony in a blue suit from Louis Vuitton. Skirt above the knee. Someone has already compared her image to Melania Trump during the inauguration of the American president. Someone is still preoccupied with her age and how much plastic surgery she did. But she did something different: she led Macron to victory, and today she followed his every gesture and word and lips uttered the first official presidential speech behind him.

Now she needs Emmanuel as air, but exclusively as an assistant. It is he who decides what to do, he determines the strategy, and she creates everything. the necessary conditions so that he will achieve his goal. And nevertheless, she was the one who made the lists of those invited to today's ceremony, she was engaged in the development of a menu for a gala reception, where, with all the variety of dishes, there will definitely be one dish. Favorite dish Emmanuel Macron - cordon blue. Breaded chicken with ham and cheese. Preferably in the form of a semi-finished product. Throw it into the pan - and you're done. His love for the cordon blue comes from childhood, or rather, from the school cafeteria. Global fast food for a globalist president.

Pro-European and pro-Atlantic, immediately after coming to power, Emmanuel Macron rushes to Angela Merkel. For advice from an older comrade, without which it will be very difficult for him to cope and implement election promises. However, main question- How quickly can Macron get rid of the excellent crammer complex? It is known that he adores Machiavelli, considers himself to be his follower, and he said: the sovereign, if he wants to keep his subjects in obedience, should not reckon with accusations of cruelty.

Details are in the report.

It has only been 3 months since Emmanuel Macron took over as President of France, but the politician's personal life does not give rest to the press. Someone calls it normal, while others are convinced that the newly elected president is a pervert. Nevertheless, Macron's wife Brigitte is 25 years older than her husband. Today she is 64, and she met her future husband when he was only 15 years old.

"So simple!" shares interview with Brigitte Macron for the glamorous magazine Elle, in which she spoke without embarrassment about her love for her husband.

French President's wife

Brigitte Macron (nee Tronneux) was born into the family of the famous French chocolatier Jean Tronneu. In 1974, she married the future banker André Louis Ozier and bore him three children. Later she received a pedagogical education and was engaged in teaching French and Latin at the Jesuit Lyceum La Providence. There, in 1993, the future first lady met Emmanuel Macron, the same age and classmate of her daughter Laurence.

The next year, between a woman and a young boy romance started, which grew into a successful marriage. The parents of the future French president, fearing a scandal, sent Emmanuel to study in Paris. But the relationship with Brigitte did not stop. In 2006, Tronieux divorced her husband and married Macron six months later. On May 14, 2017, Emmanuel Macron became President of the French Republic, and Brigitte became First Lady.

The French never cease to admire the new first lady, because Brigitte does not look at her true age. The first lady of France is often compared to Melania Trump, whose elegance and beauty cannot but conquer. Despite the significant age difference (Melania Trump is 47), both young ladies look like the same age.

The release of the glamorous magazine ELLE with an interview with Brigitte Macron broke all sales records over the past 10 years. Let's see what the newly-minted has told interesting and intimate first lady of france.

— When did you realize that your relationship with Emmanuel had changed?

“I think that was when we were working on the play by Eduardo De Filippo, The Art of Comedy (Brigitte directed the theater group at the school where Emmanuelle studied). We wrote on Friday nights. And since Saturday I was already waiting for the next Friday. I didn't understand why. It seemed so crazy to me! "

— Have you tried to resist the feelings?

“Yes, it was I who told Emmanuel to go to Paris to finish his education, because I thought it was best for him. There was nothing between us at that time, but the gossip continued. I was only interested in my children - Sebastian, Laurence and Tiffany. I didn't care about the rest of the world. "

— What was the hardest part for you in this unusual story love?

“Endless distances that physically separated us until 2007. But during this period we wrote to each other a lot. The only thing that can be blamed on my husband is that he is younger than me. "

— Do you live overcoming your opportunities?

"Not at all. This story took shape on the sly. I gradually brought my family to understanding ... Emmanuel gradually prepared his family. We didn't break any firewood. In any case, children often suffer as a result of divorce. I know I hurt my children, which is where I reproach myself the most. There are times in your life when you need to make a life choice. And so it was for me.

So, we have twenty years of difference, one might say, but this is nothing. Of course, here we are having breakfast: I am with my wrinkles, it is with its freshness, but this is normal. If I had not made this choice, I would have passed my life. I had a lot of happiness with my own children, and at the same time I felt that somewhere there is "that love", as Prever said, to be completely happy. "

— During the presidential campaign, how did you deal with the gossip related to your age difference?

"Badly. But I told myself that I should be silent. And he let go. "

— What is the current state of affairs with the changes in the status of the first lady?

“The status of the first lady will not be determined by law, but by a special document - the“ charter of transparency ”, which will show that I personally do not receive remuneration, and there will also be a detailed report on how much money was spent on one or another of my activities. The website of the Elysee Palace will publish information about my meetings and the commitments I have made so that the French know exactly what I am doing. ”

Former Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi spoke about the new French President Emmanuel Macron and his wife, who is much older than her husband.

He called the leader of the Fifth Republic "a good young man with an attractive mother," according to News in the World. According to the politician, Macron's wife Brigitte "took him by the hand when he was still a child." As noted by the British edition of The Telegraph, in the words of Berlusconi there is a reference to the fact that the current 39-year-old French leader- the youngest head of state in the history of the country after Napoleon Bonaparte. The latter became emperor at the age of 35.

Recall that Brigitte Tronier is 24 years older than her husband. This fact caused a mixed reaction in the media, as well as among users of social networks.

As the French press noted earlier, it will be extremely difficult for the wife of the new president of the country to establish herself as the first lady.

At the same time, the satirical publication Charlie Hebdo, known for its scandalous works, has recently published a new cartoon. This time, the victims of the jokers were the presidential couple. Thanks to the imagination of illustrators, the wife of the French leader appeared on the cover of a pregnant woman. The picture shows how the head of the Fifth Republic touches his wife's swollen belly. A little higher - the inscription in French: "He's going to work miracles."

To such a frank ridicule and other attacks on Brigitte, her daughter Tifan Ozier has already reacted. She declared the inadmissibility of such attacks against the first lady of France.

“I find disgusting attacks that would be impossible if it were a man-politician or a man-partner of a politician-woman. It's just envy, ”said the girl.

The newly-made president himself believes that there is nothing strange in his alliance with Brigitte, and all attacks on this topic are a manifestation of double standards. “If I were 20 years older than my wife, it would never occur to anyone to think if we fit together,” Macron said in an interview with the Telegraph newspaper.

In addition, he smashed the assumption, which had appeared during the election race, that he was a homosexual, and that his mature wife was a cover for his unconventional preferences.

“People have lost a sense of reality, since they do not believe in my marriage and ascribe to me some kind of parallel life, plus they have problems with tolerance,” the French leader emphasized.

The pre-election race in France is coming to an end - on May 7, the second and final stage of the presidential elections will take place here. Presidential candidates Emmanuel Macron and Marie Le Pen are practicing their eloquence, while Internet users and French media are discussing perhaps the most mysterious pair to emerge in the country as "tandem number one." He fell in love with her at the age of 15, she is 24 years older and she is his school teacher. The teen's parents were against this connection, but ... these two are still together. It would seem, what does politics have to do with it? And despite the fact that our heroes are the possible future president of the country, 39-year-old Emmanuel Macron, and his 64-year-old wife. HELLO.RU has collected 10 interesting facts about five minutes to the first lady of France Bridget Tronier.

When Emmanuel was 17 years old, his parents sent him to study in Paris, in the elite grammar school named after Henry IV. Since then, Macron has been two hours away from Bridget, but love, as they say, is not subject to either time or distance - for several years Emmanuel and Bridget communicated through letters.

I don't need biological children and grandchildren, ”he said.

Madame Tronier follows fashion, loves branded things very much. She is a big fan of two of the largest French fashion houses - Dior and Louis Vuitton. Such habits are quite understandable: Bridget grew up in a wealthy family, and her current spouse- a successful banker and politician who is always happy to give his beloved "cute little things".
