Trump Has This Marital Advice For Macron After Video Of Wife ‘Shoving’ Him Goes Viral

<p>US President Donald Trump on Friday offered marital advice to French counterpart Emmanuel Macron, after a video of him and and his wife Brigitte, appearing to shove his face on the plane on a trip to Vietnam, went viral earlier this week.</p>
<p>”Make sure the door remains closed,” Trump quipped, when asked if he had any “world leader to world leader marital advice” for Macron on the viral video.</p>
<p>Brushing off the incident, Trump also said the couple was “fine”. “I spoke to him. He’s fine. They’re fine. They’re two really good people. I know them very well,” he added.</p>
<p>Trump, who was holding a joint press conference with billionaire Elon Musk in the Oval Office, said he doesn’t know “what that was all about,” but added “that was not good.”</p>

<p>The incident was filmed just as the French president was about to disembark the plane after landing in Hanoi on Sunday.&nbsp;The video showed Brigitte Macron, 72, sticking out both her hands and giving her husband’s face, in what appeared to be a shove. A startled Macron quickly recovered and turned to wave through the plane’s open door.</p>
<p>According to an AFP report, Trump, who has long had a “bromance” with his French counterpart, stated he had been in touch with him since the incident.</p>
<p>On Monday, Macron denied that he was having a domestic dispute, blaming disinformation campaigns for trying to put false meaning on the footage. Macron said the incident was overblown and that the moment was a joke between him and his wife. “We were squabbling and, rather, joking,” he said, adding that it was being exaggerated into “a sort of geo-planetary catastrophe.”</p>
<p>Macron (47) met his wife Brigitte at the high school where she taught and he was a student. They have been married since 2007.</p>
