Macron says push in face by wife Brigitte 'just joking around'
Footage shows the moment Emmanuel Macron is shoved in the face by his wife Brigitte as they touch down in Hanoi, Vietnam.www.bbc.co.uk
I agree.Can you imagine the shitstorm if it was the other way round
I agree.
However, there's always been a double standard here.
Yes, of course there is a massive double standard there too. But years on, they're still together, so "meh".Oh absolutely - however I'm not sure if I've heard of a dodgier story than now him and his wife first met, and how they got together.
Other than the age difference (which I'm not really arsed about) what is it?The entire relationship is bonkers
Well, she was a teacher, and met him, at 15, at an afternoon club, that her daughter (one of his classmates) attended.Other than the age difference (which I'm not really arsed about) what is it?
Ah that. So like I said, they've been together for decades, so "meh" tbh. Age of consent in France is 15 so even though I wouldn't go there, it's not a moral judgment I'd make. It's unusual but clearly the entire relationship isn't "bonkers" or they wouldn't be together still.Well, she was a teacher, and met him, at 15, at an afternoon club, that her daughter (one of his classmates) attended.

If she met him at the legal time, they don't consider it grooming.Not sure I'd advocate grooming (which is what it was let's be honest) as the basis for a long lasting healthy relationship tbh.

This is just a bit of moral outrage over an age gap.
