Brigitte Macron was given a male name on her personal tax record by a team of hackers, a French government official has said.
The 72-year-old first lady of France has long been the subject of rumours questioning her gender, which have been shared by conspiracy theorists and social media influencers online for several years.
The rumour falsely claims that Mrs Macron was born a male and that her real name is Jean-Michel Trogneux. In reality, her maiden name is Trogneux and she has a brother called Jean-Michel.
The smear campaign went as far as hacking into her personal tax account and changing her name to “Jean-Michel, known as Brigitte Macron”, according to Tristan Bromet, chief of staff to Mrs Macron.
Mr Bromet made the revelation in an interview with BFMTV, a French news channel, in which he recounted how the French president’s wife was stunned to see that her legal name had been changed when she logged into her personal tax account.
“We were completely surprised,” Mr Bromet, who has worked with Mrs Macron since 2017, said. “I tried it again with her, and sure enough. It’s a section reserved for your username, so it can’t be changed.”
Mrs Macron filed a complaint and two people involved in the hacking have been identified. Mr Bromet did not indicate when the incident occurred.
Mr Bromet’s interview is part of a documentary broadcast on Sunday night, ahead of a trial starting on Monday in the Paris criminal court, where eight men and two women will face allegations of sexist cyberbullying against Mrs Macron.

No one really cares about this, do they?

“Hacked”
Hackers…right😜😜😜
What other parts of the tax system can get hacked into?
While amusing, I figure folks would be more interested in changing numbers on information reporting returns, e.g., a bank form reporting interest of 1000 euros to 10.
Brutal! 😂
Yeah, suuurrre! Those darn hackers.
I can’t get too excited about Brigitte Macron but I sure wish they’d leave the guy alone.
“No one really cares about this, do they?”

Yes, very powerful people care about this. Macron wouldn’t be where he is, if he weren’t a Luciferian.
That’s how most people see it I think.
True.
And I’ve got real estate on Neptune for sale.
At least someone is having some fun!
Excusez-moi madame, mais nous devons vérifier votre matériel de mariage.
The internet is a constant reminder of how many horrible people there are in the world.
matériel de mariage= wedding tackle
English is the best language.
It’s just a sign that a lot of people hate Macron, so this is their way of humiliating them, whether they really believe or not is besides the point.
