Obama makes surprising admission following divorce rumors

Barack Obama recently spoke candidly about his marriage to Michelle Obama, admitting that he has been working hard to make up for lost time.

During an appearance at Hamilton College in New York on April 4, 2025, he acknowledged that his time as president had put a strain on their relationship, and he’s been trying to “dig himself out of that hole” by doing fun things with Michelle.

The Obamas, married since 1992, have faced rumors of tension and divorce over the years, but they’ve never confirmed such claims.

Michelle has also openly discussed the ups and downs of their relationship, including Barack’s laid-back approach to time, which she found challenging at times.

Despite these struggles, Michelle admitted that her husband has improved over their 30-year marriage.

Now, as he works on the second volume of his memoirs, Obama’s focus is on strengthening his personal relationship with Michelle.
