DONALD Trump has given Emmanuel Macron marriage advice following viral footage of the French President being shoved in the face by his wife.

The unbelievable video was captured as the pair landed in Vietnam for the start of a tour of Southeast Asia last week.

The awkward incident captured him being smacked in the face by his former teacher and wife, Brigitte, moments before they were set to disembark the presidential aircraft.

Fox News correspondent Deter Doocy questioned the Don about the bizarre clip.

He asked “Do you have any world leader-to-world leader marital advice?”

The President responded: “Make sure the door remains closed.”

His advice was met with laughter in the Oval Office where he was holding a good-bye press conference for departed DOGE head Elon Musk.

Trump, who has been married three times, also joked about Macron: “That was not good.

“I spoke to him.”

He said: “He’s fine. They’re fine. They’re two really good people.

“I know him very well, and I don’t know what that was all about.”

Trump added: “But I know him very well, and they’re fine.”

His comments prompted an interjection from Musk, who said: “I know a little shiner here.”

The world’s richest man quipped about is clearly visible black eye.

He later revealed the source of his injury, saying: “I was just horsing around with Little X.

“I said go ahead, punch me in the face.”

“And he did. Turns out even a five year old punching you in the face,” Musk explained. 

In the jaw-dropping footage of Macron being slapped by his wife last Sunday evening, he is seen facing Brigitte with a stern look.

Within seconds, Brigitte’s arms pop into view, with both of them raised to Macron’s face in what appears to be a small blow and shove.

Looking startled, the French president quickly notices the doors have opened and swiftly turns to wave at the multitude of cameras waiting at the base of the plane steps.

The couple then emerge together from the aircraft and walk down the staircase, with Macron extending his arm to his wife.

But she takes hold of the handrail of the walkway for support instead, potentially due to an explosive argument they could have had inside.

The footage of the couple’s exchange quickly gained widespread attention, as media outlets attempted to interpret the incident glimpsed through the freshly opened door of the aircraft.

But Macron slammed claims that the pair were in a heated argument and instead said they were joking around.

He then appeared to laugh off the viral incident by creeping his hand round the corner of his jet’s entrance for a brief, mocking wave as he prepared to be welcomed to Indonesia.

What does the body language say?

Our body language expert Judi James takes a look at the shocking moment Macron appears to be slapped by his wife.

Judi said: “I find it shocking that they’ve attempted to explain it by saying that it was just play, just a couple letting off steam.

“Her hand comes out and presses against his face, and if anybody wants to try this on themselves, you’ll feel how vulnerable it makes you feel. 

“Macron looks rather shocked. We can see later on, if we look at a close up of his hand, we can see that it’s bored into a fist. The knuckles look white – so clearly a lot of pent up tension.

“These are veterans of being on the world stage.

“They know that when the plane lands, if they did want to have a little bit of fun and laughter, they would do it before they got to the plane door. 

“When we see them emerging, there’s this attempt to sort of do a glow up, to pretend that nothing happened. 

“That’s not normal body language behaviour in any relationship. I find it very worrying, as well as disturbing.”

After a brief moment, he walked out into full view at the top of the plane’s stairs.

But this time, he locked arms with his wife Brigitte as they headed out to greet officials.

Macron gave the cameras a thumbs up as the couple began to descend the stairs.

Although French officials have dismissed negative speculation, the eyebrow-raising incident is just the latest in a relationship that has been plagued with scandal and controversy.

The French president was just 15 years old (which is the age of consent in France) when he met the woman who he would go on to make his First Lady.

At the time she was 39 years old and married with three children – and his drama teacher in school.

Body language expert Judi James said that Brigette, 25 years Macron’s senior, seemingly attacked her husband in a non-playful manner.
