Emmanuel Macron was, this Monday, April 4, the guest of Nicolas Demorand and Léa Salamé in the morning of France Inter. Between pension reform, a return to the McKinsey and Covid controversy, the President of the Republic managed to place a few words on his grandchildren by marriage.
The family is sacred for Emmanuel Macron. Guest of the morning of France Inter this Monday, April 4, the Head of State said a few words about his role as a grandfather by marriage, while Léa Salamé questioned him about the comments he made regarding the increase in teachers’ salaries, which would not be carried out if they did not accept new assignments. “As always, the situation is very diverse. All parents of students, or grandparents of students, which is more my caseknow it”he discreetly slipped, before paying tribute to his grandmother Manette and his wife, Brigitte Macron, also teachers. “I am a teacher’s grandson – I owe so much to my grandmother who was a teacher’s husband, so I know what a vocation it is”he said with emotion.
Those little winks to his family and in particular to Élise, Aurèle, Camille, Paul, Emma and Thomas, the children of Tiphaine, Sébastien and Laurence Auzière, prove once again the attachment and the commitment of the president towards his, which he does not hesitate to defend. Very present for them since he has been in a relationship with their mother, Brigitte Macron, the 44-year-old politician knows he can count on the support of his family by marriageespecially since the start of his campaign to run for a second term.

Emmanuel Macron, an involved and loved grandfather
Present in the stands of the Defense Arena in Nanterre during its one and only meeting, Saturday April 2, the grandchildren of Emmanuel Macron are not not gone unnoticed. Brandishing a sign “Daddy President”, nickname they gave to their grandmother’s husband, the children of Tiphaine Auzière, who love to tease Emmanuel Macron, were in the front row of the event. Just like many public and political figures who came to support him.
And if the candidate of La République en Marche is so involved in the lives of his grandchildrenthis is undoubtedly due to his special relationship with his own grandmother, the late “Manette”, about whom he speaks regularly and to whom he owes a lot. Emmanuel Macron notably explained to Corinne Lhaïk, for his book Burglar President, that when he began his romantic relationship with the one who would become his wife in 2007, his grandmother was very caring and understanding. A reaction to which this couple has not always had the right, whose age difference is often surprising.
