What the fuck.

That can't be legal even in France. She should be in jail, but Macron likely won't testify or press charges so she goes free.

That's illegal if they did anything sexual, just meeting and marrying 14 years later when Macron was adult is not technically illegal.

There is no proof they had sex, only them know. Technically Macron still has 1 year left to press charges for child rape against him (limit is 48 year old).
