The power couple has been the subject of speculation following rumours that they could be headed for divorce.
Speculation intensified earlier in the year when Michelle skipped key public events.
Are the Obamas divorcing?
After months of widespread speculation, Barack and Michelle finally responded to the ongoing divorce rumours.
The couple opened up about their relationship during an episode of the IMO podcast, which Michelle co-hosts with her brother Craig Robinson. This marked the first time they publicly addressed the rumours together.
During the podcast, both affirmed that their marriage remains strong, despite going through challenging moments over the years.
Michelle noted that she had never thought of leaving Obama and explained that her recent absences from certain events were tied to her personal growth, not issues in their marriage.
What did Michelle say on Obama's birthday?
On Monday, August 4, Obama turned 64, and Michelle declared her love for him. The mother of two posted a photo of them together from the recent podcast.
Obama wore a white shirt and khaki trousers, while Michelle wore flowered pants and a top. She lovingly wrapped her hands around his waist, while Obama held her waist too.
The couple smiled pleasantly at the cameras.
In the caption, Michelle, who has been married to Obama since 1992, said she still adores him.
“Happy birthday to my love, my best friend, my everything! Barack Obama, even after all these years, you’re still the coolest guy I know.”
Social media users sent their best wishes to Obama, while admitting that they missed him.
