VIDEO. “What he hears bruises him”: Brigitte Macron recounts the President’s daily life in the midst of a political crisis

While France is going through an unprecedented crisis for many months, particularly politically, the wife of the Head of State Brigitte Macron spoke on the set of the 1 p.m. news from TF1 and answered questions from journalist Marie-Sophie Lacarrau.

“It is History which will give the meaning of this dissolution”

Several subjects were discussed with the first lady of France as well as Didier Deschamps, the current coach of the Blues who spoke of his departure in 2026.

But Brigitte Macron was asked about her husband, Emmanuel Macron, and about the political situation in the country. We remember, following the European election vote, the President of the Republic dissolved the National Assembly and new legislative elections took place a few weeks before the Paris 2024 Olympic Games. Michel Barnier had been appointed Prime Minister, but only 90 days after his entry into Matignon, his government was censored.

Since then, some parties have called for the resignation of the head of state, who had replied that he would complete his mandate. “He has already said that he will go to the end. This is the mission given to him by the French”she explains on TF1.

“I think that it is History which will ultimately give the meaning of this dissolution. Whether it was necessary to do it or not to do it. There, we are in the middle of upheavals, our noses a little too much in the way, if you allow me the expression. We have to see what happens next. I followed his reasoning.

“It’s very difficult, but he keeps it to himself”

The President’s wife talks about her husband’s sometimes difficult daily life. “He hasn’t changed but let’s say that sometimes what he hears hurts him. It’s very difficult, but he keeps it to himself. Before, he spoke much more easily. Now, he doesn’t say it . I understand that because if there is one thing that Emmanuel deserves, it is respect.”

“It’s close to his heart, even if it’s hard to imagine. He’s been in this position for eight years. I’ve never seen him completely unplug, even for a day.”indicated Brigitte Macron.

“He is concerned about absolutely everything. He puts all his intelligence and all his heart at the service of the French. I cannot say if he is right or wrong, that is not my subject, but I can say his daily and I can say that his daily life is the French.she continued.

If France has a new Prime Minister, François Bayrou, he must give his general policy speech on January 14 in front of all the deputies in the Hemicycle.
