Michelle admitted that while the two didn't fight "often," when they did, the fights were explosive.

"I tend to yell when I'm angry," the former First Lady revealed. "When something sets me off, the feeling can be intensely physical, a kind of fireball running up my spine and exploding in the moment."

The former president, however, comes across "eloquent" during heated arguments, which Michelle said is also "irritating."
