Candace Owens BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.

Candace Owens has been engulfed in a firestorm of developments these past few days—a swirl of headlines, lawsuits, firings, and social media blitzes that would make even the steeliest conservative commentators sweat. On August 23, it became official: Daily Wire CEO Jeremy Boreing announced on X that Candace and the right-wing media outlet had ended their relationship. Boreing kept it terse, offering no details about the split, but Candace was quick to reclaim the narrative. She posted to her nearly five million followers, “The rumors are true—I am finally free,” teasing major announcements to come and encouraging fans to support her work via her website and YouTube channel. Her departure comes amidst intensified scrutiny over her recent rhetoric, with the Anti-Defamation League publicly condemning her growing alignment with figures like Nick Fuentes and her increasingly antisemitic commentary.

But that’s just one front. Internationally, Owens is now facing a highly publicized legal battle with French President Emmanuel Macron and First Lady Brigitte Macron, who filed a sweeping defamation lawsuit against her last month in Delaware. Their grievance? Owens’ relentless campaign alleging that Brigitte Macron is transgender—a claim Macron recently dismissed as “nonsense” in a Paris Match interview, saying he was compelled to act because the story escalated wildly in the United States. Macron insisted he is determined to “pursue the lawsuit to the end,” while Owens has publicly declared she would stake her entire professional reputation on the conspiracy, even doubling down on social media and in interviews after the suit was filed. According to the Southern Poverty Law Center, these repeated attacks have not only fueled global humiliation for Brigitte but are also seen as part of Owens’ broader anti-trans, anti-feminist crusade. She seems to relish the fight; within a week of the legal bombshell, she claimed to Tucker Carlson that Trump had personally urged her to pull back at Macron’s request, a claim that’s certainly dramatic but remains unverified beyond her telling.

On her own podcast and social channels, Candace is now openly soliciting donations to cover what she describes as “millions” in anticipated legal fees. She’s selling everything from “#FreeEmmanuel” t-shirts to hats, and publicly pressing Trump and vice president JD Vance to intervene or at least defend her in the escalating international spat—so far, she says, to no avail. Meanwhile, Owens has been the subject of debate on social platforms for her inflammatory remarks about Jerusalem’s Muslim Quarter—an Instagram clip accusing Israel of discrimination gained viral traction, with critics pouncing on her misunderstanding of basic geography.

Add to this the recent, rare glimpses of her children through social media and public outings, which have reignited curiosity about her private life and whether such strategic exposure is designed to soften her public image. While she’s mostly guarded about her family, analysts have noted that these calculated peeks may be intended to broaden her appeal, though the motivations remain speculative as Owens has offered no comment. All told, Candace Owens’ past few days have been a wild ride—fired from her flagship platform, sued across the Atlantic for defamation, and leaning into controversy and fundraising as her public profile skews ever more polarizing and unpredictable.
