Non-French speakers this means; "They have said yes!"
The Daily Mail says this cover shows them getting married.
Hello!?
Et ici est Simon Hoggart dans Le Guardian;
"Gay marriage is responsible for so much. Back in 2007, when we last had
serious floods, some bonkers bishop in the north said they were God's
punishment. Rightwing Tory MPs have blamed the party's failures in local
elections on gay marriage and Lords reform, as if voters were saying,
"Hmm, my children are out of work, and I could be made redundant any
day, but that's nothing compared with Cameron's assault on marriage as a
sacrament between a man and a woman!""

Simon Hoggart: "I Fear Change!"
""Transphobia", it turns out, is not "fear of change", as you might imagine, but hatred of and violence towards people who have "changed their gender assignations". I don't think that's too much of a problem in professional sport here – I have not heard of any Premier League footballers who were born female – though it may have been in the old East Germany, if for chemical rather than psychological reasons.
"But when you have a term for one group of people, you need a word for the rest, and the one they've come up with is "cisgender". So the huge majority of us are now, "members of the cisgender community".
"I am puzzled about who invents these words and how they become accepted."
Simon Hoggart, in his Guardian column - yes, The Guardian.
Oh do piss off!
