Controversial conservative commentator Candace Owens has announced plans to produce a documentary exploring the possibility that former New Zealand Prime Minister Helen Clark was born male. Scheduled for release in June 2026, the film aims to delve into Clark’s early life and examine evidence that Owens claims supports this theory.
Owens, known for her provocative statements and conspiracy theories, is currently facing legal action over similar claims about French First Lady Brigitte Macron. In 2025, the Macrons filed a defamation lawsuit in the U.S. against Owens, accusing her of spreading false information that Brigitte was born male. The Macrons plan to present scientific and photographic evidence, including images of Brigitte during pregnancy, to refute Owens’ allegations The Guardian.
The announcement of the documentary on Helen Clark has sparked criticism from various quarters. Leftists argue that Owens is engaging in a pattern of spreading unfounded conspiracy theories for personal gain. Supporters, however, suggest that the film could shed light on aspects of Clark’s life that have not been widely discussed.
As the release date approaches, the documentary is expected to attract significant attention and further debate over the ethics of such investigative projects. Whether it will substantiate Owens’ claims or reinforce the criticisms against her remains to be seen.
