Macrons to Present Photos and Expert Evidence in Delaware Defamation Case Against Candace Owens

The couple plans the move to satisfy the U.S. actual‑malice standard required for public figures.

Overview

  • The 22‑count lawsuit, filed in July in Delaware, accuses Owens of knowingly spreading false claims about Brigitte Macron’s gender and refusing to retract them.
  • Court filings already include a birth notice and a family photograph stating that Brigitte Trogneux was born female in Amiens in 1953.
  • Attorney Tom Clare says the couple intends to show photos of Brigitte pregnant and with her children and to submit scientific expert testimony, acknowledging the evidence is highly intrusive.
  • Owens has publicly stood by her assertions and continues to leverage a large audience on YouTube and X.
  • Owens’ lawyers are seeking to dismiss the case or challenge Delaware as the venue, arguing the forum is improper.
