Macron plays down apparent shove from wife in Vietnam
HANOI (Reuters) -French President Emmanuel Macron played down on Monday an incident in which his wife, Brigitte, pushed him in the face as the couple arrived in Vietnam to begin a tour of Southeast Asia. In a video, Brigitte Macron appeared to shove her husband before he descended from the presidential plane late on Sunday, causing him to step back before he recovered and waved to the cameras on the tarmac below. The couple, who have been married since 2007, then descended the steps together, with Brigitte refusing her husband’s arm.
