The Obamas are jumping in on the couples challenge test.
Barack and Michelle Obama participated in a fun video for her “IMO” podcast’s social media accounts, where they were asked a series of “who” questions.
Standing next to each other, the former U.S. president and first lady first point to the one โwho apologizes first after a fight.โ Both point to Barack Obama. Then, when asked โWhoโs the funny one?โ they both point to Michelle Obama.
The challenge continues with the former politician winning titles like most romantic, most patient, grumpiest in the morning, and biggest baby when sick โ among others.
The two agreed that Michelle Obama was the one who takes longer to get ready, is more stubborn and requires more attention.
They however didnโt always agree on who was the better cook, said “I love you” first, whoโs the bigger social butterfly and whoโs the messier one.
The playful video came after they both addressed and โ dismissed โ divorce rumors during the July 16 podcast episode. At the top of the show, which is also co-hosted by her brother, Craig Robinson, he jokingly asked Barack Obama, “Wait, you guys like each other?”
Barack Obama then quipped, โShe took me back. It was touch and go for a while.โ
Michelle Obama then stated that โfolks think weโre divorcedโ if they arenโt in the same room.
The couple, who have been married since 1992, share daughters Malia, 27, and Sasha, 24.
Divorce rumors circulated after she was noticeably absent from President Jimmy Carter’s funeral in January and President Donald Trumpโs inauguration.
โThere hasnโt been one moment in our marriage where I have thought about quitting on my man,โ Michelle Obama said during her podcast episode. โAnd weโve had some really hard times. Weโve had a lot of fun times, a lot of adventures. Iโve become a better person because of the man Iโm married to.โ
โOK, donโt make me cry now,โ Barack Obama replied. โNot at the beginning of the show.โ
Michelle Obama previously stated on the โWork in Progress with Sophia Bushโ podcast that she has been prioritizing her time now that her family is out of the White House spotlight. In another interview with NPRโs Rachel Martin on โWild Cardโ shared in June, she added that just because they don’t share photos of everything they do together, doesn’t mean they aren’t.
โThe fact that people donโt see me going out on a date with my husband sparks rumors of the end of our marriage,โ she said. โItโs like, โOK, so we donโt Instagram every minute of our lives. We are 60. Weโre 60, yโall.โโ
She added, โYou just are not going to know what weโre doing every minute of the day.โ
