Marion Maréchal Facts

1. Her grandfather Jean-Marie Le Pen had founded the National Front political party in 1972. Marion featured with him in a campaign poster for the party at the age of just 2.
2. When she was elected to France’s National Assembly in 2012, Marion was just 22 years old. This made her France’s youngest parliamentarian in modern political history.
3. In November 2013, French journalist Christine Clerc published a book titled Les Conquérantes (The Conquerors) which revealed publicly for the first time that Marion’s biological father was Roger Auque, an investigative journalist, diplomat, and an Israeli spy. The story was further blown up by the weekly L’Express magazine.
4. Marion sued L’Express magazine in late 2013 for these revelations claiming it to be a ‘serious invasion of her privacy’. She won the lawsuit in April 2015.
5. Her mother had married a National Front political leader named Samuel Maréchal in 1993 and since then Marion had lived as his daughter.
6. In 2018, in a symbolic move, she removed the powerful and influential Le Pen family name from her last name.
