    First-round election winner Emmanuel Macron is 39; his wife, Brigitte, is 64. But wait! There's more!

    Born as Brigitte Marie-Claude Trogneux, the now 64-year-old is the daughter of a family of chocolatiers who are known for their macaroons, a French type of candy that sounds remarkably similar to the name of the current presidential candidate. The two first met when Macron was 15 years old at the high school in Amiens where then-Brigitte Trogneux taught a French and a theater class.

    After years of hiding their relationship, Brigitte and Emmanuel Macron enter the political stage together

    She was married with three kids. His parents forced him to transfer for his final year of prep school.

    But their love persisted.

    24 years ago when he was 15 and she was 40...I'm guessing she was pretty damn hot. Now? Well I guess she shouldn't be too surprised if he swaps her out for a 15 year old campaign worker

    Looks like 90s-era Jane Fonda to me. And that's not a bad look.

    Considering mistresses have basically been a foundation of French democracy dating back to the beginning of the Republic and beyond, I'm sure M. Macron has the younger demographic covered (perhaps in the equine sense).
