Macron’s Wife Snubs His Hand Again While Disembarking Plane in Front of UK Royals

French First Lady Brigitte Macron once again drew attention to her frosty public demeanor with her husband, President Emmanuel Macron, after she appeared to reject his offer of help while stepping off a plane to meet Prince William and Princess Kate on Tuesday.

As the French presidential couple descended the aircraft stairs ahead of a royal reception, Macron was seen extending his hand toward his wife. Brigitte, dressed in an all-white outfit, ignored the gesture and opted to hold the handrail instead, leaving the president to awkwardly pull back and walk ahead alone.

The moment was especially noticeable given the presence of the British royals on the tarmac, where cameras captured every move.

After greeting Princess Kate with an air kiss, the Macrons entered their waiting vehicle. Brigitte remained silent during the moment and kept her eyes on her phone.

The incident comes just weeks after a similar awkward exchange, when Brigitte was caught on video shoving her husband with both hands while disembarking from a plane during their visit to Vietnam — an interaction that also sparked widespread media speculation and social media buzz.
