French President Emmanuel Macron was hit by his wife on aircraft. The president and his wife, Brigitte, arrived in Vietnam on May 26, 2025, for a Southeast Asian tour, aiming to strengthen France’s economic ties and position as a reliable partner amidst global tensions. Macron’s office downplayed the event, describing it as a harmless “squabble” and a moment of decompression before the trip, amidst a backdrop of fake news targeting Brigitte, including false claims about her gender.
