The New York Post reported:
Former President Barack Obama was spotted going out to dinner with his daughters in Los Angeles on Saturday night — but former first lady Michele Obama was nowhere to be found as rumors of marriage problems continue to swirl.
Obama, 63, with daughters Sasha, 23, and Malia, 26, broke bread at upscale Japanese restaurant Hamasaku on Santa Monica Boulevard, which has been a favorite of the family since at least 2022, according to images of the dinner.
Despite the conspicuous absence of Michelle, eagle-eyed relationship monitors noticed that the former president was wearing his wedding ring.
Barack and Michelle Obama were seen at a restaurant together in San Francisco earlier this week but they just cannot put the divorce rumors to rest.
Earlier this month Michelle Obama broke her silence on the ongoing rumors about her rocky marriage.
Rumors the Obamas were headed for a divorce began in December after Michelle Obama skipped Jimmy Carter’s funeral and announced she wouldn’t be attending Trump’s inauguration.
It was also recently reported that Barack and Michelle Obama’s largest donors have dropped them amid rumors about their marriage.
Michelle Obama broke her silence on the divorce rumors during an appearance on Sophia Bush’s “Work in Progress” podcast.
The former First Lady gaslighted the public and blamed society for its unfair standards on women. She also didn’t exactly deny the her marriage is in trouble. Michelle Obama kept things vague.
“That’s the thing that we as women, I think we struggle with disappointing people. I mean, so much so that this year people were, you know, they couldn’t even fathom that I was making a choice for myself that they had to assume that my husband and I are divorcing,” Michelle Obama said of her decision to skip Jimmy Carter’s funeral.
She added, “This couldn’t be a grown woman just making a set of decisions for herself, right? That’s what society does to us.”
“We start actually, finally going, ‘What am I doing? Who am I doing this for?’ And if it doesn’t fit into the sort of stereotype of what people think we should do, then it gets labeled as something negative and horrible.”
