Marion Jeanne Caroline Maréchal-Le Pen (French pronunciation: [maʁjɔ̃ maʁeʃal ləˈpɛn]; born 10 December 1989) is a French politician, granddaughter of Front national (FN) founder Jean-Marie Le Pen, and niece of current FN president Marine Le Pen.
Maréchal-Le Pen is, like her aunt, also a member of the National Front and has been the MP for Vaucluse's 3rd constituency since 2012. 22 years old at the time of her election, she became France's youngest MP in modern political history.
She was born on 10 December 1989 in Saint-Germain-en-Laye, Yvelines, Île-de-France.
Her grandfather Jean-Marie Le Pen, who was the honorary chairman of the FN prior to his expulsion in August 2015, founded this French nationalist party on 5 October 1972. Her aunt Marine Le Pen has been the president of the Front National since 16 January 2011. Her mother Yann Le Pen, Jean-Marie Le Pen's second daughter, does not carry out any official duties within the FN. Her father Samuel Maréchal had been the leader of the Front National Youth movement (FNJ) for seven years (1992–1999). She featured with her grandfather in a campaign poster at the age of two.
In a book entitled The Conquerors (Les Conquérantes) launched on 18 November 2013, the French journalist Christine Clerc () revealed that Samuel Maréchal is not her biological father. On 7 November 2013, the French weekly news magazine L'Express disclosed the identity of her birth father, Roger Auque, a Mossad agent and investigative journalist who died in September 2014. On 8 November, Marion Maréchal-Le Pen officially announced that she had asked her lawyer to sue L'Express for a "serious invasion of her privacy".
