French President Emmanuel Macron has filed a defamation lawsuit against conservative commentator Candace Owens, accusing her of spreading false and damaging conspiracy theories about his wife, Brigitte Macron.
The lawsuit, submitted on Wednesday to the Superior Court of the State of Delaware, targets Owens for repeatedly claiming that France's first lady is a man, according to Mediaite. The filing calls her accusations "devastating lies" and alleges she knowingly platformed "known conspiracy theorists and proven defamers" despite having access to credible evidence disproving the claims.
