Roxana Maracineanu (Romanian pronunciation:[rokˈsanamərətʃiˈne̯anu]; born 7 May 1975) is a Romanian-born French politician, former swimming champion and television consultant who served as Minister Delegate in charge of Sports in the government of Prime Minister Jean Castex (2020–2022)[1] and as Minister of Sports under Édouard Philippe (2018–2022).[2]
Born in Romania, Maracineanu moved to France as a child, acquiring the citizenship via naturalisation at age 16. An accomplished swimmer Maracineanu became the first French world swimming champion in January 1998. She won silver medal in the 200 m backstroke at the 2000 Summer Olympics in Sydney.[3] She entered politics in 2010 with the Socialist Party by being elected regional councillor of Île-de-France, a mandate she held until 2015.
She was the Ensemble candidate in Val-de-Marne's 7th constituency in the 2022 French legislative election,[4] but lost out to Rachel Keke from NUPES.[5]
