Ahead of the French election, several potential presidential candidates are discussing or revealing details about their personal and romantic lives to connect with voters. This includes coverage of Gabriel Attal’s new book and recent sightings of Jordan Bardella.

With little more than a year to go before France elects its next president, at least two potential candidates have decided to open up about their love lives in a bid to win over French voters. While Emmanuel Macron’s former protégé and prime minister Gabriel Attal has told all in a new book, Jordan Bardella, the leader of the far-right National Rally, was recently “spotted” with his girlfriend on a beach in Corsica by glossy magazine Paris Match.
