The TV host also raised the possibility of a link between Obama and Aniston, adding to the growing online buzz. She highlighted the rarity of presidential divorces, saying, “I don’t remember a presidential divorce in modern history.”
However, it is important to note that Barack Obama is still married to Michelle Obama, and the rumours of a rift in their marriage have emerged in recent months.
Speculation about their relationship has intensified following Michelle’s absence from several high-profile events with her husband. She notably missed the funeral of former US President Jimmy Carter earlier this month, as well as the inauguration of President Donald Trump this week.
Michelle, who mostly accompanies her husband at such events, raised eyebrows with her absence, prompting some to wonder if there was trouble in the couple’s marriage.
Despite the swirling rumours, neither Barack nor Michelle have commented on the speculation.
