US President Donald Trump offered marital advice to French President Emmanuel Macron after a video of him, apparently, being shoved by his wife Brigitte went viral earlier this week.
"Make sure the door remains closed. That is not good," Trump said on Friday during a press conference in the Oval Office.
Asked about the incident, Trump brushed it off, saying, “He's fine too. They’re fine,” adding, “They’re two really good people. I know them very well.”
Responding to the media attention, President Macron said the incident was being overblown and described the moment as a joke between him and his wife. “We were squabbling and, rather, joking,” he explained, adding that it was being exaggerated into “a sort of geo-planetary catastrophe.”
The incident took place Sunday evening as Macron arrived in Vietnam to begin his Southeast Asian tour. In a video shot by the Associated Press in Hanoi, Macron was seen emerging from his plane as he landed. His wife Birgitte's arm then emerged from the left of the door. She placed both her hands on her husband's face and gave it a shove.
Macron and Brigitte, who met at the high school where she taught and he was a student, have been married since 2007.
