French President Francois Hollande wears protection for his ears as he watches a Mirage 2000-5 which taxis out of its hangar during a visit to the Creil military airbase as he presents New Year wishes to the French Army in Creil, near Paris, January 8, 2014.
'Francois Hollande greatly deplores the invasion of his privacy, to which he has a right as any other citizen does. He is studying what action, including legal action, to take following this publication,' the source said.
The weekly tabloid earlier published a 7-page photo spread of comings and goings outside a Parisian apartment block to support its allegation.
The pictures showed the arrival of one man resembling one of Hollande's bodyguards, a second man - which it purported was Hollande - arriving and leaving on a scooter and unidentifiable in a black helmet.
A woman who the publication alleged was actress Julie Gayet was also seen arriving at and leaving the same apartment.
