Former President Barack Obama and former first lady Michelle Obama are laughing off the divorce rumors that have plagued them for much of the past year
Barack Obama joined his wife and his brother-in-law Craig Robinson on Wednesday for an episode of the siblings’ podcast, “IMO.”
While the episode topic focused on raising young men, the Obamas and Robinson kicked off their conversation with some laughs about the rumors that the Obamas’ decades long marriage is in trouble.
Wait, you guys like each other?” Robinson joked when Barack Obama entered the conversation, prompting Michelle Obama to reply, “Oh yeah, the rumor mill.”
Barack Obama quickly continued the joke, replying to Robinson, “She took me back. It was touch and go for a while.”
“It’s so nice to have you both in the same room together,” Robinson continued, to which his sister responded, “I know, ’cause when we aren’t, folks think we’re divorced.”
The rumors about the former first couple’s marital status started earlier this year when Barack Obama attended several high-profile events solo, including the funeral of former President Jimmy Carter, as well as President Donald Trump’s second inauguration.
