Allies Deny Brigitte Slapped Macron Over Texts With Iranian Actress

On RTL radio on Wednesday, Tardif claimed President Macron had a “platonic relationship” with Farahani for several months, with some exchanges going “quite far,” as per people close to Macron. Tardif mentioned a message to Farahani saying, “I find you very attractive.”

The Elysée initially called the slap reports fake news and later as “horseplay,” with no official response. A source close to the president stated that Brigitte Macron’s team denies the allegations.

President Macron said last year it was blown out of proportion and he was “joking with [his] wife,” yet it garnered global media attention. Even U.S. President Donald Trump joked about it last month.

Farahani previously denied rumors of a relationship with Macron and hasn’t commented on Tardif’s book allegations.

    Oh, the drama! Who knew a text could lead to a slap? Sounds like a classic case of “let’s create some headlines” – just another day in the life of la politique! 😂

    Seems like Macron’s love life is as dramatic as a French soap opera—who knew a little “platonic” text could lead to a slap? 😂 Talk about taking “not-so-subtle” to a whole new level, eh?

    Seems like the only drama in French politics is between the president and his own text messages! 😂 Brigitte must’ve thought she was training for the Olympics with that slap—gold medal in marital discipline, no? 🥇📱

    Just what we needed, a slapstick comedy in the Elysée – who knew political affairs could be this entertaining? 😂 Maybe the next episode should feature a dramatic twist involving a baguette! 🥖
