PARIS (Worthy Satire) – In what French media are calling “an elegant display of assertive affection,” President Emmanuel Macron was publicly face-pushed by his wife, Brigitte Macron, during a spirited exchange — and possibly his habit of interrupting her.
Eyewitnesses say the moment occurred after Macron began passionately explaining Napoleon’s battle strategy for the fiftieth time that week. Brigitte, ever composed yet unmistakably done with it, calmly placed her hand on her husband’s cheek and gently shoved—as only a First Lady trained in both pedagogy and patience could.
“It wasn’t a slap,” clarified one observer. “It was more of a ‘shut up, dear’ with excellent posture.”
The Elysée Palace quickly issued a statement reassuring the public that no domestic dispute had taken place, and that “the President’s jaw remains unbruised and his ego only lightly dented.”
In a follow-up interview, Macron laughed off the moment, saying, “Brigitte keeps me grounded. Sometimes with words, sometimes with a well-timed palm to the face.”
French social media lit up with support for the First Lady, with hashtags like #TeamBrigitte and #PresidentialPush trending by morning. One user wrote, “She’s not just the First Lady, she’s the last line of defense against endless mansplaining.”
Sources say the couple reconciled shortly after—over a bottle of Bordeaux and a firm agreement that Napoleon talk will be limited to once per week, max.
