French President Emmanuel Macron and his wife , Brigitte Macron, will present photographic and scientific evidence in a U.S. court to prove that she is a woman. Attorney Tom Clare has explained to the BBC that the measure is part of the couple's allegation of defamation against conservative commentator Candace Owens .

Clare said the allegations have been "extremely disturbing" for Brigitte and are a "distraction" for the French president.

Counsel has advanced that expert testimony and graphic documentation, including photographs of pregnant Brigitte, will be presented to refute the claims in an unquestionable manner. "It is a very public and difficult process, but the decision is firm in clarifying things," Clare said.

Owens, who has millions of followers on social media, has clung to his accusations despite being illegally assaulted by the French president's partner.
