Michelle has opened up on divorcing Obama.
NewsOnline Nigeria reports that Former US First Lady Michelle Obama has addressed divorce rumours circulating around her marriage to Barack. Michelle also claimed that it was time for her to start asking tough questions. According to her, women “struggle with disappointing people.”
“They couldn’t even fathom that I was making a choice for myself, so they had to assume that my husband and I are divorcing. That this couldn’t be a grown woman just making a set of decisions herself,” Michelle said on Sophia Bush’s “Work in Progress” podcast.

Michelle further explained that she wanted to control how she spent her free time. “Who do I want to have lunch with? How long do I want to stay in a place? Do I want to travel? If a girlfriend calls and says let’s go here, I can say yes,” she said.
Michelle and Barack met in 1998 when the former American president took a job at a law firm in Chicago.
