Gabriel Attal

French politician serving as the Prime Minister of France since 9 January 2024. Attal was appointed by the President of France, Emmanuel Macron, to replace Élisabeth Borne as the PM. At the age of 34, he became the youngest person and the first openly gay person to serve as the Prime Minister of France as well as the ninth openly LGBT person and the youngest person currently serving as a head of state or government in the world.

A member of the Renaissance party, Attal rapidly rose up the political ranks following his election to the National Assembly in June 2017; he became the Junior Minister to the Minister of National Education and Youth in 2018, which made him the youngest person to serve in the Government of France, the Spokesperson of the Government in 2020, the Minister of Public Action and Accounts in 2022, and the Minister of National Education and Youth in 2023.

Attal is the most popular politician in France and the French media have speculated that he is a potential contender in the 2027 French presidential election.

His father, Yves Attal, was a lawyer and film producer of half Tunisian Jewish descent (on the paternal side) and half Alsatian Jewish descent (on the maternal side). Attal's mother, Marie de Couriss, was of French and Greek-Russian ancestry, and worked as an employee of a film production company. When his parents divorced, Attal added de Couriss to his name.

Attal previously lived in a civil union with Stéphane Séjourné, a member of the European Parliament for LREM. The relationship had ended by 2023. When they were both attending the École alsacienne, he had a relationship with singer Joyce Jonathan, but Jonathan said that the relationship was merely "a joke between us" and "a playtime crush".
