Reports have surfaced suggesting former President Barack Obama and former First Lady Michelle Obama may be experiencing strain in their marriage after more than 30 years together. Sources claim the couple’s relationship has grown more platonic, while renewed rumors about Barack’s alleged link to actress Jennifer Aniston have reignited media buzz.

The speculation intensified after Michelle missed several public events, including former President Jimmy Carter’s funeral, where Barack appeared alone. This absence, along with talk of them leading separate lives, fueled gossip. Meanwhile, rumors of a past connection between Obama and Aniston resurfaced. However, the Friends star quickly shut down the claims, clarifying, “I’ve only met him once — I actually know Michelle better than Barack.”

Reports from Radar Online suggest recent tension in the Obamas’ marriage, with the resurfaced rumors allegedly upsetting Michelle. Her absence from high-profile occasions — including Donald Trump’s inauguration — has further fueled the narrative of distance, despite official explanations citing scheduling conflicts.

Still, both remain publicly devoted. Michelle has previously admitted marriage “isn’t always easy,” while Barack continues to praise her, calling her “the love of my life.” Despite speculation, the Obamas remain focused on family, philanthropy, and the shared legacy they’ve built together.
