Ségolène Royal, is a French politician and former Socialist Party candidate for President of the French Republic. She was President of the Poitou-Charentes Regional Council from 2004 to 2014, she won the 2006 Socialist Party primary, becoming the first woman in France to be nominated as a presidential candidate by a major party. In the subsequent 2007 presidential election, she earned further distinction as the first woman to qualify for the second round of a presidential election, but lost to Nicolas Sarkozy. In 2008, Royal narrowly lost to Martine Aubry in the Socialist Party's election for First Secretary at the Party's twenty-second national congress, she lost the Socialist Party presidential primary in 2011, failed in an attempt to win a seat in the National Assembly in the June 2012 parliamentary elections. François Hollande, the former President, is the father of her four children, she was appointed by him to the vice-Chair directorship of the Banque Publique d'Investissement in 2013. She served as Minister for Ecology from 2014 to 2017, in the Valls Cazeneuve cabinets.

Ségolène Royal was born on 22 September 1953 in the military base of Ouakam, French West Africa, the daughter of Hélène Dehaye and Jacques Royal, a former artillery officer and aide to the mayor of Chamagne. Her parents had eight children in nine years: Marie-Odette, Marie-Nicole, Gérard, Marie-Ségolène, Paul and Sigisbert. After secondary school in the small town of Melle, Deux-Sèvres, Marie-Ségolène attended a local university where she graduated 2nd in her class with a degree in Economics, her eldest sister suggested she prepare the entrance exam to the elite Institut d'études politiques de Paris popularly called Sciences Po, which she attended on scholarship. There she discovered politics of feminism. In 1972, at the age of 19, Royal sued her father because he refused to divorce her mother and pay alimony and child support to finance the children's education, she won the case after many years in court, shortly before Jacques Royal died of lung cancer in 1981. Six of the eight children had refused to see him again, Ségolène included.

Royal, like the majority of France's political elite, is a graduate of the École nationale d'administration. She was in the same class as her former partner of 30 years, François Hollande, as well as Dominique de Villepin; each class year at the ENA receives a nickname to distinguish it: Royal tried to get her peers to name their class after Louise Michel, a revolutionary from the 1870s, but they chose the name "Voltaire" instead. During her time at the ENA, Royal dropped "Marie" from her hyphenated first name. After graduating in 1980, she elected to serve as a judge of an administrative court before she was noticed by President François Mitterrand's special adviser Jacques Attali and recruited to his staff in 1982, she held the junior rank of chargée de mission from 1982 to 1988. She decided to become a candidate for the 1988 legislative election, her candidacy was an example of the French political tradition of parachutage, appointing promising "Parisian" political staffers as candidates in provincial districts to test their mettle.

She was up against an entrenched UDF incumbent, Mitterrand is said to have told her: "You will not win, but you will next time." Straddling Catholic and Protestant areas, that district had been held by conservatives since World War II. She did win against the odds, remarked: "Pour un parachutage, l'atterrissage est réussi.". After this election, she served as representative in the National Assembly for the Deux-Sèvres' 2nd constituency. Minister of Environment: 1992–1993. Minister of School Education: 1997–2000. Minister of Family and Children: 2000–2001. Minister of Family and Disabled persons: 2001–2002. On 28 March 2004, she obtained 55% in the second round in the regional election in Poitou-Charentes, notably defeating Prime Minister Jean-Pierre Raffarin's protégée, Élisabeth Morin, in his home region, she was elected president of the region the next week. She kept her National Assembly seat until June 2007, when she chose not to run in the legislative election, in agreement with one of her presidential campaign's promises.

She organised a run-off between two contenders. On 22 September 2005 Paris Match published an interview in which she declared that she was considering running for the presidency in 2007. In 2006 the CPE laws were proposed with large protests as a result. Rather than going to the organised protest, she voted a law in her "région" whereby no company using that type of contract would receive the Région's subsidies; the government backed down and stated that the law would be put on the statute book, but that it would not be applied. After this event Royal was tipped as the lead contender in what is dubbed the "Sarko-Ségo" race against Nicolas Sarkozy; until that time, she had not been thought a candidate as she had stayed out of the Socialist Party's power struggles. On 7 April 2006, Royal launched an Internet-led electoral campaign at Désirs d'avenir, publishing the first of ten chapters of her political manifesto. By the beginning of September, her intentions had become quite clear, she has said that only widespread sexism in the Socialist Party had prevented it from rallying around her candidacy as it would have had she
