The latest rumor to strike the celebrity world is that Barack Obama and his wife, Michelle Obama, are headed for divorce. This stems from the notable absence of Michelle at numerous big events recently, including Jimmy Carter’s funeral and Donald Trump’s inauguration. Now, a body language expert is giving their opinion on the matter after observing the instances in which the pair step out together. Keep reading for more information.
The Obama's Look 'Somber' At Dinner Together
The last time the Obamas were seen together was in December, when they went out to dinner in Los Angeles. However, this dinner date reportedly lacked a lot of what you normally see on a date. According to body language expert Judi James, the pair exhibited a lot of movements that would point to at the very least some tension in their relationship.
James pointed out that Barack looked "rather somber" throughout the evening, and that he "walked behind his wife," instead of next to her. There was "no sign of any chatting or coupling up between them" as they left the restaurant or after they got into their car. Even in the car, paparazzi photos show the pair with serious expressions and no eye contact.
Split Rumors
These split rumors are not necessarily new. There have been many headlines, some more unlikely than others, including the alleging that Michelle Obama is actually gay. The more popular rumor, though, is that Barack Obama is actually having an affair with Jennifer Aniston. Though Jennifer Aniston has previously denied any links to the former president, saying in October 2024 when she appeared on an episode of Jimmy Kimmel Live! that she's only met him once, and that the rumors are "absolutely untrue."
