A photo of French President Emmanuel Macron and the Minister of Sports kissing went viral: his wife was standing nearby

French President Emmanuel Macron and Sports Minister Amélie Oudea-Castaire kissed passionately at the opening ceremony of the 2024 Olympics in Paris. The photo of their kiss went viral and surprised the network.

It happened back on July 26, but posts on social media have only recently begun to appear. According to the local magazine Madame Figaro, the emotional embrace between Macron and Udea-Castera seemed "strange" to the French.

Amélie, a former tennis player, held her interlocutor's neck with one hand, pressing her lips hard against him. He responded by holding the athlete's shoulder.

The French noted that the minister "certainly knows how to get people talking about her." In general, users were skeptical of this gesture.

Interestingly, the kiss took place in the presence of Emmanuel Macron's wife, the first lady of France, Brigitte Macron. She was not embarrassed by this.

Amélie Oudea also has a partner. She tied the knot with banker Frédéric Oudea, with whom she has three children. A passionate kiss between married people in France was called indecent.
