Just one week after being completely emasulated by Turkish President Erdogan, Emmanuel Macron has now been pie-faced by his wife in front of the world’s media as they touched down on a diplomatic mission in Hanoi, Vietnam.
As the plane doors open, it doesn’t seem like the French President and his wife Brigitte are quite aware that they’re on camera:

Oh dear. Just a fun gesture between a loving couple? Or something to get the conspiracy theorists going? It’s not like there isn’t already enough material on the Macrons out there: their 25-year age gap, the fact that they met when he was 15 and she was his 39-year-old teacher, or the rumours that Brigitte Macron was born a man. The last thing they need now is people assuming that Brigitte beats the sh1t out of him behind the scenes.
In any case, it’s pretty clear who wears the trousers in this relationship. Macron, blink twice if you need help!
