If I were having problems with my husband, everyone would know.
Former First Lady Michelle Obama was photographed enjoying lunch in Puerto Portals with her daughters, Malia and Sasha, hosted by former U.S. Ambassador to Spain James Costos and his partner, Michael Smith. Notably absent was her husband, former President Barack Obama, prompting renewed speculation about the strength of their marriage.
Despite the rumors, Michelle has publicly dismissed claims of marital trouble. She previously stated: “Daban por hecho que mi marido y yo nos estábamos divorciando, no que pudiera ser una mujer adulta tomando decisiones.” She added, “Si yo estuviera teniendo problemas con mi marido, todo el mundo lo sabría.”
Social media posts also affirm the couple’s unity. On Father’s Day, Michelle wrote that Barack has “always been there for us.” Similarly, Barack praised Michelle on Mother’s Day, saying he was “lucky” to have her.
Married since 1992, the Obamas continue to project a united front despite ongoing speculation.
