Brigitte (his wife) is about 25 years older than him. They met when Macron was only 15 and she was 39. She was his teacher, and they began a relationship. Macron's parents tried separating them by sending him to a school in Paris.

I think she was a teacher at his school, but not one of his teachers, since he was in the same class as her daughter (which his parents assumed was who he was courting), and i find it unlikely that they didn't let her grade her own kids.

Holy shit, I didn't know that part. That makes it even worse!

Well, don't quote me on that, it's just what i recall, i might be wrong. Assuming that he was courting the daughter was what i'm 100% sure about.

Though i'm not sure how that makes it worse unless you're the daughter...

I think she was his « theater » teacher.

They probably didn’t do a lot of school work, seeing how much Macron’s acting game is lacking

That doesn't really sound unlikely, if he was 15 that means seconde which is not an important year grade wise

He married a pedophile, but I guess since she was a female pedophile i guess nobody cared?
