The wife of French President Emmanuel Macron is planning to provide photographic and scientific evidence to a US court to prove she is a woman. They are planning to present the documentation as part of the defamation lawsuit they have taken against right-wing influencer Candace Owens, who presented her view that Brigitte Macron was born male. France's First Lady Mrs Macron has said she found the claims “incredibly upsetting.” Tom Clare, the lawyer acting for the Macrons, said the court would be shown “expert testimony… that will be scientific in nature.” He said the Macrons were prepared to prove “both generically and specifically” that the allegations are false. "It is incredibly upsetting to think that you have to go and subject yourself, to put this type of proof forward," he told the BBC.
