The fact that Emmanuel Macron met his wife Brigitte, 24 years his elder and once his teacher, in a classroom setting has shocked the British public.
In fact, it’s stunned everyone – except the French.
Transposing the situation to a candidate in the UK’s general election is basically impossible; it would send shockwaves throughout British politics. But as a French person, it’s the reaction that I find surprising. The Macrons’ story is unusual and interesting, sure, but it’s also no big deal.
It’s a cliché that French politicians are forever upsetting the country’s politics with their love affairs. But even when you move beyond the stereotypes, it’s true that the French do have a vastly different attitude than their British counterparts when it comes to sex and relationships.
Firstly, pupil-teacher relationships in France are not frowned upon as a deeply inappropriate affair, as long as both parties are over the age of 18. That’s not to say that these relationships are common, but as long as consent applies and the law is respected, people mind their own business.
Secondly, French presidents have, since time immemorial, made ink run on paper about their relationships with younger and beautiful women.
