Viral Clip Shows Emmanuel Macron's Wife Shoving Him in the Face as French First Couple Arrives in Vietnam

French First Lady Brigitte Macron was caught on camera in a seemingly tense moment with her husband, President Emmanuel Macron, as the couple arrived in Hanoi, Vietnam. While waiting to disembark their plane, video footage showed a uniformed official opening the aircraft door, revealing President Macron standing in the doorway dressed in a formal suit. Suddenly, Brigitte Macron, identifiable by her red sleeves, reached forward and appeared to shove her husband’s face—one hand covering his mouth and part of his nose, while the other gripped his jaw. The French president turned his head slightly in reaction to the unexpected gesture but quickly composed himself upon noticing nearby news cameras. He smiled and waved before stepping aside from the doorway. Shortly afterward, the couple descended the aircraft stairs together. President Macron extended his arm in a customary gesture, but the First Lady, dressed in a striking red blazer, chose not to take it, adding to speculation about the interaction. The incident has sparked widespread commentary online, with the viral clip fueling curiosity about the dynamics between France’s first couple during their diplomatic visit.
