A video is surfacing on the Internet that shows French President Emmanuel Macron and his wife Brigitte. The video shows Macron's wife smacking his face. It all unfolded on Sunday evening at Hanoi Airport, where Macron touched down to kick off his Southeast Asia tour. But rather than a traditional welcome, it was an unexpected slap that grabbed all the attention.
When the gate of the plane opened, a hand on Macron's face was captured. This happened when Macron was stepping out of the plane.

Macron was surprised, but he quickly took a back and waved to the people present there. At the same time, Brigitte stayed behind the plane’s door. There were endless rumors. Even though they came down the stairs together.

Many online debates started around the video, including: “Could it be a heated argument, a pre-travel joke or just a playful shove?” and, above all: “Was that an actual slap or a simple push?”
