## Summary

Emmanuel and Brigitte Macron have filed a new defamation lawsuit in the United States against podcaster Candace Owens over her claims about Brigitte Macron’s gender. The case, brought in Tennessee, renews their effort to challenge the claims after a judge narrowed an earlier case in Delaware.

The Macrons allege Owens used the claims to attract attention and make money; Owens confirmed the new filing on social media. The earlier lawsuit, filed in 2025, can continue against two companies associated with Owens, but the judge ruled it could not proceed against her personally in that court.
