Marion Jeanne Caroline Maréchal (French pronunciation: [maʁjɔ̃ maʁeʃal]; née Le Pen; born 10 December 1989), known as Marion Maréchal-Le Pen from 2010 to 2018, is a French politician who has served as a Member of the European Parliament (MEP) since 2024. She is part of the Le Pen family, as the granddaughter of National Front (renamed National Rally in 2018) founder Jean-Marie Le Pen and niece of its later leader Marine Le Pen. Maréchal is a former member of the far-right National Front (FN) and served as the member of the National Assembly for the 3rd constituency of Vaucluse from 2012 to 2017. Aged 22 years at the time of her election, she became France's youngest parliamentarian in modern political history. After the 2015 regional election, for which she received the best result for an FN candidate, she became the Leader of the Opposition in the Regional Council of Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur. In 2017, Maréchal did not seek reelection as a member of the National Assembly and resigned as a regional councillor. She founded the Institut des sciences sociales, économiques et politiques (ISSEP), a private school, in 2018. In 2022, she joined Éric Zemmour's Reconquête party. She headed the party's list for the European Parliament in the 2024 election, before being expelled from the party by Zemmour on 12 June 2024 due to calling on voters to support RN candidates in the 2024 snap legislative election.
