65-year-old Brigitte Macron, who is his wife to the French president, most recently gave an interview in which she described her life during the reign of her husband Emmanuel. It turned out that the life of the first lady of the European state is not such an easy thing, at least so says Brigitte.
I was not chosen, but now I have responsibilities
Brigitte began her interview by telling about the journalists who are now present in her life every day. This is what the first lady of France said:
"After my husband became the head of state, everything changed radically. Now I do not belong to myself and I do not have free time. Every day in our lives there are reporters who are trying to photograph us. This is the moment that worries me most. Every time I go outside, I understand that I am under the scrutiny of the public. This is the moment that worries me most. I believe that this is the highest price that I ever had to pay for something. "
After that, Makron decided to tell that for her to be the first lady of France - this is a rather strange phenomenon:
"When my husband won the election, I was very happy for him. I was happy that the people of our country believed him and made their choice in his favor. Despite this, my role in this matter is rather strange. They did not choose me, but now I have duties, and there are so many of them that I have a very hard time. I clearly understand that I can not let my husband down, which means that I must comply with him and the demands that the public makes on the first lady of the country. "

"Despite the fact that now my life consists of various trips and business meetings, I do not forget that I am the most ordinary person. Sometimes it seems to me that the first lady of France is not about me. I live the most ordinary life, in which there is a place not only for work, but for my little joys. I did not turn away from my friends and did not abandon my hobby, just for the time of my husband's presidency, I took on some other responsibilities. "
