Speculation about a potential divorce between former U.S. President Barack Obama and his wife, Michelle Obama, has surged following several high-profile events. The rumors gained momentum when Barack Obama attended the inauguration of incoming U.S. President Donald Trump, while Michelle Obama notably refrained from attending. This absence fueled further speculation, especially after Michelle also missed the funeral of former President Jimmy Carter.

Despite the growing rumors, many on social media have dismissed the claims, stating that there is no concrete evidence of marital issues between the Obamas. However, the speculation recalls a 2000 report in which it was suggested that Michelle once considered divorce. The couple, who married in 1992, have two daughters, Malia and Sasha. Barack Obama became the 44th President of the United States in 2009, making history as the first president born outside the contiguous United States.
Michelle Obama has previously discussed the challenges they faced in their marriage, revealing in an interview that they sought counseling to address minor issues that arose. The couple’s long-standing partnership has weathered public scrutiny, and these latest rumors have yet to be substantiated.
