'It Was Touch and Go for a While'
Barack Obama made a 2025 appearance on his wife's podcast to clear up divorce speculation.
However, the couple has appeared to shut down the rumors with social media posts and public appearances together, while still opening up about the tough times.
In a 2022 interview, Michelle confessed, "People think I'm being catty by saying this. It's like, there were 10 years where I couldn't stand my husband."
She acknowledged that the rocky time was when their two daughters "were little."
Three years later, Barack made an appearance on his wife's IMO podcast in July 2025 to help quell divorce speculation, as he joked, "It was touch and go for a while."
Despite sitting on the opposites sides of a table, Michelle confessed, "We've had some really hard times. We had a lot of fun times, a lot of adventures, and I have become a better person because of the man I'm married to."
