French President Emmanuel Macron and his wife Brigitte have filed a new lawsuit in an American Tennessee court against journalist Candace Owens, who claims that the wife of the French leader was born as a man. This was reported by the AFP agency.
According to the agency, the lawsuit was filed on November 4 and consists of about 400 pages. The document mentions 88 cases of "false claims" made by Owens.
The journalist herself has confirmed the fact of the lawsuit being filed.
"I'm afraid this is true. The Macrons have indeed filed a new set of accusations against me," she wrote earlier on social media.
As reported by the agency, Emmanuel and Brigitte Macron accused Owens of using false information "to promote her independent platform, gain recognition, and earn money."
In their view, the journalist did not stop spreading disinformation even in the summer of 2025, after the first lawsuit was filed.
"These false claims have caused enormous damage to the Macron family," the agency quotes from the court documents.
Owens has repeatedly stated since March 2024 that Brigitte, the wife of French President Emmanuel Macron, was actually born a man. In September 2025, Macron and his wife were preparing to present evidence to the court to refute Owens's claims.
The American journalist's channel has more than 6 million subscribers.
Recall that earlier reports covered the death of the journalist who made the controversial claim that Brigitte Macron was born male.
Additionally, it was previously reported that the journalist who made the controversial claims about Brigitte Macron being born male had won a court case.
