In a now-deleted comment, Mr Bolsonaro had appeared to negatively compare the appearance of Mrs Macron, aged 66, with that of his third wife, Michelle, aged 37.

Following a backlash, many Brazilians took to social media to apologise for their president鈥檚 comment, causing the hashtags #PardonBrigitte and #DisculpaBrigitte (sorry Brigitte) to trend online.

In response, Mrs Macron said 鈥淢uito obrigada! (Thank you very much!)鈥� during a to Azincourt (Pas-de-Calais).

Mrs Macron : 鈥淎 very, very big thank you to all those who got involved. Times are changing. There are some who are still changing.

鈥淲omen are there with you, nearly all of you men know this now. Not everyone. Some are still on the platform [but] I am sure it will not be long before they get on the train. Things change. Everyone must take note. There are things that you can no longer say and things that you can no longer do.鈥�

Earlier this week, Mr Macron himself had called the comments 鈥渆xtraordinarily rude鈥�, and well-known Brazilian author Paulo Coelho also published a video, in French, apologising to Mrs Macron.

Tensions between the two countries and leaders have been high after Mr Macron called the fires in the Amazon rainforest 鈥渁n international crisis鈥�, and pledged to discuss them at last weekend鈥檚 G7 summit in Biarritz.

Mr Bolsonaro condemned the approach as 鈥渃olonialist鈥�, and the Brazilian government publicly rejected the $20 million (鈧�18 million) that the G7 had released to help combat the fires.

After an outcry, Brazil later said it was in fact 鈥渙pen鈥� to the money.
