Michelle and Barack Obama have been plagued a plethora of divorce rumors in recent weeks, with the former First Lady choosing not to attend a number of key events in recent weeks

Conservative commentator Meghan McCain has reignited speculation about former President Barack Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama’s supposedly troubled marriage which is rumored to be heading towards divorce.

The former First Couple made it clear they are still very much in love … or very committed to needlessly lying about their relationship status!

Meghan McCain, speaking on journalist Tara Palmieri’s podcast, fueled the narrative, claiming she had heard the rumors from “reputable sources” and “serious journalists.” Palmieri supported the claims, suggesting the former First Couple have been "living separate lives."

Meghan McCain has suggested that Barack and Michelle Obama are heading for divorce, according to rumours she’d heard from “serious journalists”.

Well, this certainly is no way to quash any of those divorce rumors. In fact, it seems as though Barack Obama has done the exact opposite after several reports have suggested he and his wife Michelle Obama are about to split up.

Despite speculation caused by Barack’s recent solo appearances and Michelle’s inauguration absence, Barack and Michelle are not headed for a divorce, as the former President made clear in a Jan. 17 tribute to his wife for her birthday.
