## Summary

Emmanuel and Brigitte Macron have filed a new defamation lawsuit against US podcaster Candace Owens in Tennessee, where she lives. They allege that she has continued to spread false claims about Brigitte Macron’s gender and the couple’s lives, escalating a legal dispute that began in Delaware.

Filed on 4 November in Nashville, the complaint brings 88 claims against Owens personally, including defamation and false light, and seeks damages and a limited injunction. The Delaware case against companies linked to Owens remains pending after a judge ruled that the court could not hear claims against her personally. The Macrons say Owens repeated the allegations in an eight-part podcast series and accompanying social media posts; Owens has not yet responded to the new filing.
