A viral moment took center stage when Brigitte Macron unexpectedly joined her husband, French President Emmanuel Macron, during PSG’s Champions League trophy celebration at the Elysee Palace. The team was being honored after their stunning 5-0 victory over Inter Milan, and just as players applauded and posed for photos, Macron waved his wife into the spotlight. While the move seemed like a show of unity, it quickly triggered a flood of online reactions. Viewers linked the moment to the now-infamous viral video from Vietnam, where Brigitte appeared to push Macron’s face as they exited a plane. Jokes like “Watch out for another slap” flooded comment sections, with many speculating the trophy appearance was a PR move to ease public tension from the week’s controversies. Despite Macron brushing off the Vietnam clip as a joke, the internet isn’t letting it go just yet.
