Delaware Court Dismisses Candace Owens From Macron Defamation Lawsuit

Faith Facts

• Truth-telling is a biblical mandate, and believers are called to stand firm in what they know to be true regardless of legal pressure.
• God’s design for male and female is foundational to Christian teaching and undergirds family and society.
• Believers are reminded in Scripture to fear God rather than man when facing opposition for speaking truth.

A Delaware judge has dismissed media personality Candace Owens from a defamation lawsuit filed by French President Emmanuel Macron and his wife, Brigitte Macron.

Two companies linked to the podcaster remain part of the case.

Owens publicly celebrated the ruling and noted she was never personally sued for stating that Brigitte Macron was born male.

“I wasn’t sued for saying the wife of the French president was born a man. I wasn’t sued. My company was sued.”

She emphasized the distinction between personal and corporate liability.

The decision removes Owens as an individual defendant while leaving the businesses tied to her podcast subject to further proceedings.

Observers see the outcome as a partial victory for free speech and accountability.

Supporters argue that questions about public figures’ personal histories should not be silenced by legal threats.

“I’m still waiting for the lawsuit to actually be about defamation.”

Critics of the Macrons maintain that transparency about leaders’ backgrounds matters to voters and citizens.

Owens has continued to comment publicly on the case and its implications for open discourse.
