The wife of the French president, Emanuel Macron, will take legal action over an internet conspiracy theory that she is a transgender woman and was born male.
Bridgette Macron, 68, has been targeted on social media with the false claims, after they were published on a far-right website in September then circulated by conspiracy theorists, reports the BBC.
The rumours claim she was born male under the name Jean-Michel Trogneux.
“She has decided to initiate proceedings, it is in progress,” lawyer Jean Ennochi told AFP.
