wife appears to slap him during a heated argument on an official tour. In footage taken at Hanoi airport, Macron's profile can be seen through the door of his official plane. Seconds

later, his wife Brigette quickly raises a hand to his face, and appears to strike him. The French president looks surprised and turns to wave outside, before the couple begin to walk down

the staircase. Emmanuel Macron then attempts to hold her hand, but she chooses not to take it, and instead holds onto the handrail of the walkway. The couple arrived in Hanoi on Sunday

evening for a week-long tour of Southeast Asia, which will include stops in Indonesia and Singapore. A source close to Macron speaking to French news channel BFMTV dismissed the incident as

simply a married couple "bickering." They added: "It was a moment for the President and his wife to unwind one last time before the start of the trip by having a little

fun." READ MORE: MAN 'THREATENED TO SHOOT DONALD TRUMP IN THE HEAD' AFTER PRESIDENT DEPORTED HIS FAMIL Fox News correspondent Peter Doocy asked Donald Trump: "Do you have

to marry Trogneux - a married mum-of-three at the time - and his parents even tried to put a stop to the schoolboy love affair, according to a book. Their romance blossomed as Trogneux

away from his son until he reached 18. Fulda said Macron's parents have since accepted the relationship and his mother has since described her as "adorable". In the book,

Trogneux was discreet about the origins of the affair. The French president will is set to make a state visit to the United Kingdom in July. Macron will stay at Windsor Castle for the visit,

which will take place from July 8 to July 10, Buckingham Palace confirmed earlier this month.
