French President Emmanuel Macron sued far-right influencer Candace Owens to combat her “nonsense” claims about his wife Brigitte Macron, he said in a new interview.
The couple filed a defamation lawsuit last month against Owens over her “relentless and unjustified smear campaign” falsely accusing Brigitte of being born a man. The Macrons are seeking damages after suing her on 22 counts, including defamation and false light.
