French President Emmanuel Macron’s wife, Brigitte, plans to take legal action after a bizarre disinformation campaign was launched against her falsely claiming she was born a man.

The rumors appeared to have originated in a March Facebook post before spreading in mid-October when a far-right outlet published an article on the supposed “mystery of Brigette Macron.”

The unfounded gossip circulating on social media says Brigitte is a transgender woman whose name at birth was Jean-Michel Trogneux.

In the past few weeks, the bizarre claims have gained new traction with the emergence of the trending hashtag #JeanMichelTrogneux.

Brigitte, 68, now intends to file a legal complaint to sue over the disinformation, her lawyer, Jean Ennochi told AFP.

“She has decided to start procedures, it’s in process,” Ennochi told the news service.

The online attacks against Brigitte come as Macron gears up for a re-election in April – though he hasn’t officially declared a run. Bizarre rumors have claimed that Brigitte Macron's birth name was Jean-Michel Trogneaux. Bizarre rumors have claimed that Brigitte Macron’s birth name was Jean-Michel Trogneaux.

The president met Brigitte when he was 15 and she was a 40-year-old drama class teacher.

The couple has faced accusations concerning their relationship in the past.

During Macron’s successful 2017 campaign for office, he was forced to deny claims that he had a gay affair.

Using the courts to get even with someone is a very dangerous course to embark on. (Oh, it’s expensive too.)

“when he was 15 and she was a 40-year-old drama class teacher.”

Just the normal liberal perversion.

Gee, I wonder if the transgender lobby is going to freak out over this and cancelban-hammer her hateful cis-scum ass, because her vehement denial somehow insults and demeans all those beautiful, beautiful polygenderqueers? :P

/yes, sarc

Being powerful is like being a lady. If you have to tell people that you are, you aren’t.

I believe she is not a tranny which is why she is suing. Michael Obama though you'll notice has never sued.

Michelle Obama doesn’t have the balls to sue any who claims she’s a tranny. Oh wait, I’m wrong about the balls.

The online attacks against Brigitte come as Macron gears up for a re-election in April...

Attacks? How can they be "attacks" unless there it is a bad thing to be merely a transgender woman rather than a real woman. Is this article not guilty (by woke standards) of being transphovic? Is this article not hate speech? Or even, as the woke might argue, vilience?

Madame has never read ‘Uncle Remus’ or the phrase tar baby would occur to her. The more she raises sam hill about this the more traction it gets.

Talk about the Streisand Effect.*

Now more people are going to find out about how she molested her now-husband when he was a minor and that she's 24 years older than him.


*The Streisand effect is a phenomenon that occurs when an attempt to hide, remove, or censor information has the unintended consequence of increasing awareness of that information, often via the Internet. It is named after American singer Barbra Streisand, whose attempt to suppress the California Coastal Records Project’s photograph of her residence in Malibu, California, taken to document California coastal erosion, inadvertently drew greater attention to it in 2003.

I would never say she's transgender when it's quite clear she's a domesticated ape.
