VIDEO: Emmanuel Macron Reacts to Awkward Viral ‘Slap’ Video With Wife, Calls The Outrage ‘Nonsense’

French President Emmanuel Macron has responded to a viral video showing an awkward moment with his wife, Brigitte Macron, as they arrived in Hanoi, Vietnam.

The clip, which sparked global speculation, shows Brigitte reaching toward Macron’s face and appearing to push it aside just as the aircraft door opened — a gesture many online interpreted as a slap.

Macron, who looked briefly startled in the footage, has dismissed the controversy, calling it “nonsense” and saying the couple were simply “fooling around.” He criticized the public overreaction, adding that a private, lighthearted moment was blown out of proportion.
