Emmanuel Macron candidate: can he count on the support of his wife?

Size support. Since his first election in 2017, Emmanuel Macron has been able to count on his wife, Brigitte Macron, to be by his side every time. He does not hesitate to turn to her when he needs advice. This Thursday, March 3, the current President of the Republic has formalized his candidacy for the next presidential elections. He is therefore going back to the countryside for a few weeks but can he count on the support of the first lady? As Gala recalled, during her appearance on TF1’s 1 p.m. newscast, she explained that she feared “hate. I also fear this kind of permanent crescendo, we are going further and further“. Subsequently, she had clarified that she hoped that “the election campaign will be an exemplary campaign, allow me to dream sometimes”. So, has she changed her mind? “She is ready to take on the role of First Lady again“, explained Paris Match this Thursday, March 3. A moment of doubt which therefore seems to be behind her and Brigitte Macron is ready to support her husband until the first round, next April 10.

They are fusion. Brigitte and Emmanuel Macron are constantly on the front of the stage since both are the subject of numerous criticisms. In August 2021, the journalist Gaël Tchakaloff had released a book in which she had chained the revelations concerning their relationship. “We have the feeling that they met the day before. The miracle is there: lightness has not been damaged by the difficult beginnings of their history, nor by the passage of years, nor by the weight of power., she had first confided. Subsequently, she had mentioned the relationship between the President of the Republic and the First Lady. “They are together all the time. Not an hour and a half goes by without them talking to each other”. A love story that they have lived in the spotlight for several years now but which does not seem to impact them. “She shares everything in my life, from evening to morning. She has a place in this house which is not only that of being the woman who accompanies me in life. She is also my adviser, the one to whom I submit my ideas”. Emmanuel Macron had told journalist Arthur Berdah. There is no doubt that he will be able to count on his support during the next few weeks, which promise to be decisive for his re-election.

Emmanuel Macron: how did he announce his candidacy?

The presidential elections are fast approaching since they will be held on Sundays 10 and 24 April. Many candidates, such as Anne Hidalgo, Marine Le Pen, Valérie Pécresse and Eric Zemmour, had quickly announced their candidacies. However, that of Emmanuel Macron was still missing. The current President of the Republic has cast doubt and had claimed to have other more important things to focus on, including the health crisis or more recently, the war in Ukraine. He finally took the plunge this Thursday, March 3 and, for this, addressed the French in a letter published in the regional press. This was revealed by several media in the early evening. A formalization which was not surprised and which was eagerly awaited.
