Today you will find out how Bridget conquered the young politician and how she is still holding on.

Early life of Bridget Macron

Brigitte Macron (nee Tronier) was born on April 13, 1953 in the city of Amiens, in northern France, in the family of a successful chocolatier. In a wealthy family, she became the last sixth child. A promoted business today brings owners about 4,000,000 euros a year. Growing up, Bridget decided to devote her life pedagogical activity. In 1974, an intelligent Frenchwoman married banker André Louis Ozier, and how loving wife gave birth to her husband three children: a son, Sebastian, and two daughters, Laurence and Tiffany. Returning to her hometown of Amiens, she began to give French lessons and at the same time led an acting class at one of the most prestigious schools, La providence. It was then that the fateful meeting of the future spouses took place.

Acquaintance of Emmanuel and Bridget

The biography of the teacher was initially unremarkable. Brigitte Marie-Claude Macron devoted herself completely to her work. They met the future president of France when young man barely turned 15 (!) years old. At that time, a mature 39-year-old teacher and a young youth met on the stage during a rehearsal of one of the plays.

Joint classes unexpectedly dragged on for a long two years. Emmanuel ran with his tail after his teacher, seeing his passion home. In response to this, the teacher praised the pupil, admiring his writing talent, and even called him the second Mozart because of his musical abilities. Her husband did not like the excessive closeness of the teacher and the student, but the loving banker could not even imagine how such affection would end.

Marriage of Macron and Tronier

At the age of 17, Emmanuel confessed his love to Bridget, and his parents hurried to take their son to Paris to an elite gymnasium named after Henry IV in order to hide the blood away from a married passion. Leaving, the guy promised to marry Bridget at all costs. She waved it off with a smile, but divorced just in case. Father Jean-Michel Macron was categorically against his son's communication with a tenacious teacher, but the offspring continued secret correspondence. Emmanuel matured as a groom at the age of 30, the “tender age” of the bride at that moment was only 55 years old.

Photos of the wedding in the town hall on the fashionable beach of Le Touquet have become a real sensation in the world of big politics, where young Emmanuel has already managed to earn a good reputation for himself. By the way, the peppy pensioner-bride inherited a luxurious villa on Le Touquet, which now serves as a second home for the couple. The newly-made husband himself, in a fiery wedding speech, called his couple "abnormal, but real."

The attitude of Emmanuel and Bridget to children

Musi-pussy relationship, which the couple has been broadcasting from the screen for several years, annoys many viewers. The wife of Emmanuel Macron calls her husband “mani” “mimicously”, and he calls her “bibi” in response. In between kissing passionately on camera, the couple babysit Bridget's seven grandchildren. The handsome, talented, and successful president is often caught on camera, festooned with grandchildren or bottles of nutrition.

Appearance of Bridget Macron in his youth

Almost all of France discussed appearance first lady. The paparazzi dug their noses into the ground, trying to find the ugliest photos and secrets of the elderly "Bibi". Here are just a few facts that journalists managed to find out:

It turned out that Brigitte Macron in her youth loved to wear a hairstyle with bangs, dividing it on both sides, and the length of her hair never exceeded the classic bob.
As an intelligent teacher, she dressed modestly and elegantly for work, but in free time I loved stylish things, especially chiffon scarves.

The height of the first lady is 175 cm, and her weight, even in her younger years, did not exceed 50 kilograms. Until now, the lady keeps the "French" weight at the level, but the public openly advises the woman to gain a few kilos, because her figure clearly resembles a dried date.

Young Bridget did not like the abundance of cosmetics. And if in her youth the naturalness of the features was emphasized by a broad smile, now the lady was nicknamed the Nutcracker by the people, the Russian audience decided that she was the spitting image of Alexei Panin. It is not clear whether Bridget looks like Panin, or like a mother monkey from a Soviet cartoon, but the image of the lady is certainly bright.

The openness of the gaze and the upturned nose “muzzle” are now slightly spoiled by the famous smile at all 32. Opponents of the president have long nicknamed his wife “shark”, but the first lady herself does not blow such accusations.

In clothes, the woman preferred short dresses and skirts, which frankly demonstrate slender, long legs free-spirited grandmother.

Open, stylish, slightly anarchic - this is how the young Madame Macron appears in dozens of photos that have spread on the Internet, but age takes its toll.

Brigitte Macron now

Now the first lady of France is in great shape for her age. At any event, she, as a faithful squire of Sancho Panza, accompanies her fighting Don Quixote. The couple, not at all embarrassed, merges in theatrical kisses, sometimes kissing is extremely erotic.
At the summit in Paris, the Macrons met with Donald and Melania Trump. The US president and his wife have the same age difference of 24 years, but in their case, the man is traditionally older. Sparing with compliments (even to his beautiful wife), Trump frankly admired Bridget's appearance, complimented both her face and figure. in pursuit of perfection, she went under the knife of surgeons more than once, however, the laurels went to a Frenchwoman with shriveled knees.

The passion of the first lady is expensive accessories from the most famous designers. A woman easily puts on classic military-style coats and jackets. And slender legs can withstand leather trousers and biker boots.

Features unusual for the wives of presidents are a pronounced tan and bleached hair. A solarium lover does not take into account the detrimental effect of ultraviolet radiation on the zhamkan skin of the thinness of tissue paper. From passion for sunburn, the skin on the face wrinkles and when Bridget smiles, the feeling that the folds can tear.

Emmanuel's wife did not do any plastic surgery, and in makeup she uses powder with reflective particles, the effect of which allows you to slightly hide the dense network of wrinkles.

In professional care, Bridget prefers SMAS facelift. This procedure allows you to save the oval of the face from the "landslide", tightens the chin and slightly supports the line of the eyebrows.
Previously only ex-president Nicolas Sarkozy and his wife were so frank about intimate relationships.
Enemies of the president slander that Emmanuel himself is gay, and his marriage is just a PR stunt. In response to the accusations, the young handsome man chuckles, retorting that apparently only his hologram is meeting with men somewhere.

Bridget Macron tries to imitate the image of the first lady of the state in everything, but at the same time reserves the right to self-expression through clothes and appearance. Modern outfits and expensive accessories successfully complement the image of a smart and energetic woman with an active position in life.

A faithful friend, wife, adviser, mentor - it was under the strict guidance of his wife Brigitte that Emmanuel Macron managed to move from the office of the French Minister of Economy to the Elysee Palace.

The story of their love can be a good script for a Hollywood movie, because Brigitte, according to some experts, was able to conquer the French and played an important role in Emmanuel's victory in the presidential election.

Madame and Monsieur Macron have become one of the most discussed couples in the world, which is not surprising, because the opponents of the new French president and even those who are far from politics are embarrassed not only by the "young" age of the new president, he is only 39 years old, but also by the age of his companion - Brigitte is 64 years old.

Despite the significant age difference, the presidential couple continues to destroy existing stereotypes and look happy and confident, proving that the age difference is just prejudice.

Who is Brigitte Macron

Brigitte Macron was born on April 13, 1953 in the family of the famous French confectioner Jean Tronier in the town of Amiens in northern France. She was the sixth child in the family. Her father's biscuit and macaroon factory was founded in 1872 and still brings the family about four million euros a year.

Having matured, Brigitte began teaching French and Latin at school, and also directed the school theater. It was there that she met Emmanuel Macron.

At 21, she married the banker Andre Louis Ozier, with whom she had three children - a son, Sebastian, and daughters, Lawrence and Tiffany.

Love knows no age

Brigitte and Emmanuel met when the future president of France was only fifteen years old. She taught him literature and acting skills at the Lyceum in Amiens, and he was fond of classical music and poetry. They turned out to have a lot in common, and their conversations about literature over the years grew into a stormy romance.

Not without scandal. The young man followed on the heels of his teacher, which, of course, did not please not only Brigitte's husband, but also the inhabitants of the conservative town of Amiens. Young Macron parents sent to study in Paris.

Parting, Macron promised Brigitte that he would definitely return for her. And he kept his word. He returned and confessed his love to her. In 2006, Brigitte filed for divorce to stay with Emmanuel, and in 2007 the couple officially legalized their relationship.

Now Macron is not only the youngest president of France, but also the very young grandfather of Brigitte's seven grandchildren. By the way, Macron officially adopted three children of his wife, immediately after the wedding.

Speaking to the public, with confident speeches, well polished along with Brigitte, Macron says that everything he has achieved is the merit of his beloved wife.

"Style icon"

French fashion magazines called the country's first lady "style icon". Brigitte gives her preference to two fashion houses - Christian Dior and Louis Vuitton.

Her love for expensive clothes and accessories is understandable, she has been accustomed to luxury and chic since childhood.

Tan, bright blonde hair and high heels do not really fit into the "Parisian chic" of light-skinned Frenchmen, but nevertheless, Brigitte Macron is recognized as a very stylish lady. She regularly attends shows of world brands and always dresses with taste - restrained and classical.

A slender figure allows Madame Macron to wear graceful and tight-fitting outfits. No catchy suits, deep necklines and short skirts - Brigitte skillfully emphasizes the slenderness of the figure with dresses just above the knees and strict trousers.

French magazine Paris Match called Brigitte a style icon - "a tanned blonde with a toned figure, whose age only adds spice."

Elegant minimalism, which the first lady of France prefers, was immediately noticed and appreciated by fashion critics and famous designers.

“I love Brigitte. She is a brilliant woman, and she has a charming figure,” Karl Lagerfeld said in an interview.

Now Madame Macron continues to help and support, teaches at a religious school in Paris and brings up her grandchildren, says that she does not want to become a politician, it is enough for her to be close to her beloved spouse.

In an interview, Macron admitted that he does not need biological children and grandchildren, because he is already happy.

She is his compass, he is her the starting point. For many years they love each other and look in the same direction, from now on - towards the Elysee Palace.

They believe in their star, they are charming, and their 24-year age difference is intriguing ... "

This is an abstract to the book "Macrons" by French journalists Carolyn Derrien and Candace Nedelek, which is dedicated to the winner of the first round of the presidential elections in France Emmanuel Macron and his wife Bridget. This unusual alliance attracts more attention around the world than the election program of the new president.

On the stage of Providence

The romantic love story began 24 years ago in Amiens, small town in the north of France. Emmanuel Macron - at that time a 15-year-old student of the Jesuit Lyceum with the speaking name "Providence". His medical parents have invested a lot in his education and he shows great promise with his academic success. Macron is a class star.

Bridget Ozier (Bibi, as her family name is) is an exemplary wife and mother of three children. She is 39 years old, in "Providence" she teaches French and Latin, and in order to somehow escape from the sweet, but monotonous life of a provincial town, she runs a theater studio.

The paths of these two should not have intertwined. Contrary to the version circulated by the media, she was not even his teacher.

“Mom, we have a madman in our class who seems to know everything and everything...,” Bridget heard about Macron for the first time from her daughter Laurence. Then there were other teachers who praised the superb student in every way. Madame Ozier became interested, invited Emmanuel to one of her productions. He agreed, although the first role - a garden scarecrow - was not too to his taste. And then something happened that changed their lives. Her, that's for sure.

They discussed a new play to be staged. Bridget hesitated: too few roles for the theater troupe. “Madame, be more ambitious,” Macron urged the teacher. - If necessary, we will complete the play together! She thought he was joking. But he was not joking: the next day he stood on the threshold of her house. And so every day for two months. They worked hard on the scenes, and Bridget was captivated by Macron's mind and talent: "He was well-read beyond his years, spoke with adults on an equal footing and did not seem like a teenager at all." Emmanuel, too, with youthful greed gave himself to the joint work.

“We thought he was dating Lawrence or Tifan, one of her daughters,” neighbors later recalled. But then the girls got boyfriends, and it became clear that Macron was spending time with their mother! »

"I'm marrying you! »

There was no romance then, according to Bridget: “Yes, I felt that our relationship was moving from an intellectual connection to something more emotional. At some point, my heart told me: here he is, the man of my life. But the mind said that this was impossible, he was too young ... There was nothing sinful in our relationship, we were afraid to talk about what was happening. ”

After some time, Emmanuel could not stand it and was the first to confess to Bibi his feelings. There were more and more rumors about their romance, her husband and his parents found out. One of the versions says that it was they who insisted that the son leave to finish his studies in Paris, away from his crazy love. Emmanuel initially resisted, then, succumbing to Bridget's persuasion, changed his mind. However, just before leaving, he could not stand it, came to his beloved and said: “You will not be able to get rid of me, I will return and marry you!” “The separation was very difficult,” Bridget recalls. We called each other all the time and talked for hours. For hours! Gradually, he helped me overcome all fears and doubts.”

When Emmanuel turned 18, Bridget divorced her husband, and the lovers began to live together. “How did the people in Amiens feel about our history? Bridget continues. - Badly. But no one told me openly. Only my brothers and sisters tried to dissuade me from this step. But I had already made up my mind at that moment.”

Bridget directs his performances and attends business meetings with him. At a rally in Paris this spring, Macron admitted: "She helped me become who I am."

Their couple even after 10 years happy marriage continue to be tested. Either they start a rumor that Emmanuel has a non-traditional sexual orientation, or they attack with questions about the impossibility of having their own children. Macron answers all these challenges openly. He declared that he did not lead a double life and spent all his days and nights with his beloved Bridget. What about children? “Yes, it was our choice not to have common child Macron says. “But the fact that I don’t have biological children doesn’t stop me from loving and caring for Bridget’s three children and seven grandchildren. This is my family".

Bridget family

Bridget Tronier was born on April 13, 1953 in the north of France (the town of Amiens) - in the family of a famous chocolatier. She was the sixth and most youngest child. The company of her confectionery dynasty, numbering five generations, produces, in particular, pasta cakes. Family business- quite successful and brings a profit of four million euros per year.

First marriage

When Bridget was 21, she first married the banker Andre Louis Ozier and subsequently bore him three children: a son, Sebastian, and daughters, Lawrence and Tiffany.

Acquaintance and marriage of Macron and Bridget

The future spouses met when Emmanuel was 15 (!) years old. Bridget Tronier then taught French and led a theater group in private school La providence, where Macron studied.

They first met during the preparation of a theatrical play. Looking at Madame Macron, one can assume that in her youth she was very pretty, and, to be honest, now Bridget is also in great shape. Joint classes with the teacher dragged on for two years - they spent every evening together, and Emmanuel followed his teacher with his tail and even escorted her home. Of course, last fact Bridget's husband didn't like it very much.

Two years later - at 17 - the future President of France made 40-year-old Bridget a declaration of love. But at that time, the woman already had a husband and three children, so she didn’t even think to take a declaration of love from a guy seriously.

Macron confidently declared: "No matter what you do, no matter how you evade me, I will marry you anyway."

Emmanuel's father, Jean-Michel Macron, forbade Bridget to communicate with their young son. When Emmanuel was 17 years old, his parents sent him to study in Paris, in an elite gymnasium named after Henry IV. Future spouses continued to communicate through letters.

It's hard to believe, but after a few years Bridget divorced her husband to be with Macron. At that time, Emmanuel was just starting his career in big politics, and Bridget became a teacher at one of the religious schools in Paris. After 13 years they got married.

Their wedding took place in the town hall, on a fashionable beach resort Le Touquet, where Bridget inherited a luxurious villa, which today serves as a second home for the couple.

During the wedding speech, Emmanuel thanked Bridget's parents and children for supporting their union. The young groom admitted that although they are not a “normal couple”, they are still a “real couple”.

Children and grandchildren

The Macrons have no children of their own. Answering a question from journalists, Macron explained that this was a conscious decision. He calls Bridget's grandchildren his children. Bridget has three children and seven grandchildren.

At one time, all major media disseminated photographs of Emmanuel Macron, who walks with his wife and wears bottles baby food for her grandchildren. French publications write that Macron is very grateful to Bridget's children for being able to accept their relationship.

Bridget's grandchildren don't call Emmanuel "grandfather", but address him with affectionate English "daddy".

Elections and support

The love story of the spouses - conquered the French, so it played a small role in Macron's victory in the presidential election.

Bridget devoted herself entirely political career husband, she often helped compose speeches for Macron's political speeches. However, Bridget herself is not going to become politician. According to Madame Macron, she just wants to "be there."

Age difference

Bridget Macron is 24 years older than her husband. By the way, the current US President Donald Trump and his wife Melania have the same age difference.

However, unlike the owner of the White House, the French presidential candidate always emphasizes that his wife is his closest adviser.

French economist Marc Ferazzi, best man at Macron's wedding and now a member of Macron's team, described their relationship this way:

Yes, they are not exactly a traditional couple. But they fell in love 20 years ago and since then their feelings have only grown stronger. Their story is very simple and you have to accept the fact that people can just fall in love - and so much that their love will never weaken.

Icon style I

French fashion magazines called the country's first lady "style icon". A woman prefers clothes from the two largest French fashion houses - Dior and Louis Vuitton and can afford it.

Today, Macron actively brings his wife into the light and allows the paparazzi to photograph them together and publish thousands of their pictures in newspapers and magazines. Such behavior, when a politician himself actively talks about his personal life, France has not seen since the time of Nicolas Sarkozy, who decided to "imitate the Kennedys" in relations with his already ex-wife Cecilia.
