Asked by Anne-Claire Coudray and Gilles Bouleau for 10 minutes to convince TF1, Emmanuel Macron relied on the first symbolic move he would make if selected. The opportunity to give a very strong tribute to his grandmother.
D-3 before the first round of the presidential election. The candidates no longer had much time to convince the French and some of the remaining interviews were very valuable. So, on April 6, Emmanuel Macron and Marine Le Pen were invited to TF1 on a new program called 10 minutes to convince. There was no debate but a discussion with Gilles Bouleau and Anne-Claire Coudray. The opportunity for the candidate of La République en Marche to confess of the first symbolic act he will make if re-elected.
Against all odds, this is a personal honor: “On a personal level, I will lay flowers on my grandmother’s grave in my beloved Pyrenees”. Her grandmother was Germaine Noguès, nicknamed Manette, who died at the age of 96, in 2013. A former geography teacher, he was also a school principal. She, her maternal grandmother passed on to her the taste of studying and reading. Manette has always been in Emmanuel Macron’s life, as he expresses in the book President of the thief.
Brigitte Macron: “If Germaine hadn’t accepted me, I wouldn’t have lasted long”
In fact, while she was in a relationship with Brigitte Macron, many of her family members as well as some relatives turned their backs on her. Her maternal grandmother was never. On the contrary : “My grandmother gave her a place when all the conventions of her generation opposed it. The most beautiful proof of unconditional love is one”. Brigitte Macron also mentions this brave grandmotherin the book Just the two of us : “If Germaine hadn’t accepted me, I wouldn’t have lasted long.” Beautiful proof of love for one who wished to pay him a substantial tribute, by moving to the Pyrenees, to thank him in some way to help him get there.
