French President Emmanuel Macron and his wife, Brigitte Macron, have had yet another awkward public encounter less than two months after their infamous shoving scuffle made headlines.
The French president, 47, and his first lady, 72, arrived in the UK Tuesday for a three-day state visit.
Cameras were rolling as they deplaned a jet at Royal Air Force Northolt in London, capturing Brigitte leaving her husband hanging as he held out his hand to help her walk down the plane’s steps.

Emmanuel’s suit-clad arm was extended for several moments, but the first lady appeared more focused on holding onto the railing. She did, however, appear to eventually acknowledge her spouse’s kind gesture, exchanging a few short words with him once she stepped down and offering him a nice smile.
Prince William was present for the arrival, and was seen shaking Emmanuel’s hand shortly after. The British royal was accompanied by his wife, Kate Middleton, for the greeting.
Reps for the French president could not immediately be reached for comment.
