    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brigitte_Macron

    It was at the after-school drama club of Lycée la Providence where she and Emmanuel Macron first met.[13] She was in charge of the after-school theater club he attended when he was 15 alongside her own daughter Laurence who was in his class.[14] Their relationship has attracted controversy, as she is his senior by close to 25 years, and he was a minor; Macron has described it as “a love often clandestine, often hidden, misunderstood by many before imposing itself”.

    In 1993, at the age of 39, she met the 15-year-old Emmanuel Macron in Lycée la Providence,[40][41] where she was a teacher and he was a student and a classmate of her daughter.[42] Brigitte divorced Auzière in January 2006 and married Macron on 20 October 2007.

    Rape is barely even illegal in the US. In our culture, if a man gets raped, that’s funny, if a girl gets raped, no she didn’t; that bitch is lying.

    As far as creeping on underage people, others have pointed out the hypocrisy there.

    It doesn’t seem “truthy” what with all non-investigations of the Trump/Epstein rapes staring us in the face. It is a teacher however and they aren’t very valued by the current american administration. /s

        I honestly did not. Like I recognize Macron and know some stuff about current, recent, and ancient france. But no, their drama isnt shit to me. I still dont know why that one prince (england, not france) who ran away is a ginger, i keep waiting for it to break hes just a bastard from a ginger haired pool boy. (Or whatever hired hand a princess would fuck) I try to keep up with the rest of the world, where its important I guess. Sometimes
