Emmanuel Macron: His Brigitte reveals the last secrets of her marriage entertainment

She cooks her own soup in the palace…

While in France the front hardened once morest President Emmanuel Macron (45) and his pension reform (including raising the retirement age from 62 to 64 years), Première Dame Brigitte (69) started the fabric softening program.

In an interview with the daily newspaper “The Parisian” she chats from the presidential sewing box – “juicy” revelation included.

“Life in the Élysée is not what it is portrayed to be. We have a private apartment, I make breakfast and dinner there.”

The morning ritual for her husband? “I love fruit, so he always gets two oranges and a lemon. It makes him bitch every morning, but I also give him a kiwi.”

The head of state drinks tea and eats muesli with quark. “He eats little in the morning. I, on the other hand, need toast and cheese or I can’t stand it.” Her shadow? dog Nemo. “It sticks to my leg all day.”

Normalo insight into an unusual marriage!

There were always rumors (e.g. that Macron was secretly homosexual), as well as the age difference: HE was 15 when he fell in love with SHE (then 40, married, three children, two of them older than him) in the theater company. She divorced in 2006 and married Macron in 2007.

“When the President cooks, there is chaos in the kitchen,” Brigitte Macron jokes in “Le Parisien” regarding everyday marriage with Emmanuel Macron. In 2015 she gave up her job as a teacher for his career

“When you’re in love, you have no choice,” said the President in a TV interview a few days ago. In addition, Brigitte was “not really” his teacher: “She was my acting teacher, that’s not the same.” The Macrons love it easy! In the evenings, Brigitte “prefers to cook quick, simple recipes”. Things that are difficult to digest end up in her diary – and then in the garbage:

“I don’t want anyone to find it. I don’t destroy everything, but a lot.”
