Macron’s alleged ‘slap’ was sparked by texts with Iranian actress, book claims • FRANCE 24

An AI-generated tabloid magazine cover online claimed to show President Emmanuel Macron and Iranian-French actress Golshifteh Farahani together. The fake cover builds on claims from a new book about the Macrons by a French journalist, who alleges the pair had a “platonic” relationship, with one message from Macron reading “I find you very pretty.” Allegedly, it prompted the now infamous "slap" by Brigitte Macron, as the couple exited the plane in Hanoi.
