The results in the French presidential elections are in and projections show incumbent Emmanuel Macron, who was favourite to win, has secured a second term with 58% of the votes.

That gives him a second five-year term in office, making him the first French president to win re-election since Jacques Chirac in 2002

The projections show Marine Le Pen received 42% of the votes.
