“I have been hearing this rumor that the Obamas are getting a divorce by reputable people. I’m not talking about TMZ. I’m not talking about Perez Hilton… I’m talking about like very serious journalists telling me that they’re hearing that the Obama divorce rumors are true,” Meghan McCain, writer, commentator, and daughter of later Senator John McCain said.

Commentator and author Meghan McCain, daughter of late senator John McCain, said her highly placed source confirmed that former president Barack Obama and former first lady Michelle Obama are heading for a divorce. Speaking on her podcast to Puck reporter Tara Palmeri, McCain said her sources are reputable people and not like website TMZ.

To this, Palmeri said she too has been hearing these rumors for a long time. “We’ve heard that for a long time, like I just heard that they live separate lives.”

Then the duo talked about the photo that Barack posted to wish on Michelle Obama’s birthday and said that the photo was quite bad. ‘I would kill Ben if he put a picture of me looking like no makeup with that lighting on social media,’ McCain said, referring to her husband, Ben Domenech. ‘I would kill him. So for me it didn’t help the rumors, and like why are you putting this like s****y picture of your wife up?’

Palmeri said Michelle Obama always hated politics and did not like being the first lady. As they are no longer in politics, this is a chance to drop Washington completely, she said. “I am not at home with them, but it’s not really surprising at this phase of their life and she clearly has very little interest – she’s always hated politics! She did not really like being First Lady,” she said.

Michelle and Obama were last seen together in early mid-December when they stepped out for dinner in Los Angeles. The divorce rumors became intense amid speculations that Barack Obama has been dating Jennifer Aniston, though the actor dismissed the rumors last October on Jimmy Kimmel show.

Barack and Michelle first met in 1989 when they both worked at a law firm in Chicago. They got married in 1992 and had their first daughter Malia in 2998, and second daughter Sasha in 2001.

Barack Obama appeared solo at Jimmy Carter’s funeral and Donald Trump’s inauguration. The decision to skip both events was seen as a political message but questions were raised as to why she was vacationing without Barack Obama if there is no trouble in their marriage.
