Candace Owens BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.
Fresh off a firestorm of international headlines Candace Owens has dominated the news with a sprawling defamation lawsuit filed against her by French President Emmanuel Macron and First Lady Brigitte Macron. This legal drama centers on Owens repeating the conspiratorial claim that Brigitte Macron was born male a statement widely debunked and described by outlets like The Independent as a relentless and unjustified smear repeated in her podcast and online. The Macrons filed a 219-page complaint in Delaware shaking up both US and French media scenes. While most pundits speculated that even American free speech defenses would buckle under the weight of such litigation Owens instead doubled down—accepting Piers Morgans on-air challenge to a three hundred thousand dollar charity bet that she stands by her claim and repeatedly telling both Morgan and Tucker Carlson that her crusade is about finding the truth not launching attacks. Owens says she even offered to cancel her multi-episode investigation series if the Macrons would answer her questions directly.
On the politics front The Independent and The Economic Times both report that Donald Trump personally phoned Owens after being approached by President Macron in Washington diplomacy. Trump reportedly said the First Lady looks like a woman to him and that the subject was making Brigitte Macron miserable. Owens claims Trump seemed baffled by the request but has since remained silent in the public arena which has become a bone of contention for her. On a recent episode of her podcast Owens expressed surprise and frustration that neither Trump nor his running mate JD Vance nor even the US attorney general has stepped up to defend her on First Amendment grounds despite the international implications for American free speech.
Social media has been buzzing as well with reactions spread from supportive memes and hashtags to sharp criticism. August 7th saw her release a new video on YouTube addressing a copyright dispute with photographer William Farrington whose Epstein death scene photos her team had posted. Owens said legal threats over the reposted photos were inconsequential even suggesting the episode allowed her to track Farringtons location and dismissing the Epstein story as full of holes fueling further internet debate.
Owens continues to fiercely guard her family’s privacy according to EdTechLens which observed her deliberate strategy of keeping her children out of the spotlight possibly to shield them from the toxic glare she regularly courts in her public life. As detailed by The Spectator Owens shows no signs of backing down publicly stating on August 8th that the Macrons lawsuit has only amplified her platform and that she sees her situation as a global referendum on limits to free speech.
There has been the usual speculation and rumor around her personal motivations but verified appearances and direct statements make clear Owens remains at the center of one of the summers most high-stakes battles over speech celebrity and international power.
