After a day of intense speculation, intensified by the fact that the former US president did not wish his wife a happy birthday, Barack Obama became more 'wild' than usual in the public expression of his feelings, wanting to deny a crisis in his marriage.
"Happy birthday to the love of my life, @MichelleObama. You fill every room with warmth, wisdom, humor, and grace, and you look beautiful doing it. I am so lucky to be able to face life's adventures with you. I love you!", wrote both on the social network 'X'.

Michelle herself reposted their photo, returning the loving feelings. "I love you, honey," Michelle wrote, writes A2 CNN.

Rumors about the couple's separation and Barack Obama's relationship with Jennifer Aniston
The photo of Barack and Michelle Obama comes at a time when rumors of the couple's separation are "exploding" more and more, while some media outlets are talking about a love affair between the former American president and Jennifer Aniston, which the actress herself denies.
These scenarios have stemmed from the behavior, statements, and attitude of former US First Lady Michelle Obama, who chooses not to be "present" with her husband of 30 years as often.
Michelle Obama has chosen not to attend the inauguration of new US President Donald Trump on January 20, which has sparked controversy, as Barack Obama will be at the Capitol for the ceremony.
There is no particular fondness between Obama and Trump. Michelle has attacked him over sexual assault allegations from various women and accused him of endangering the entire Obama family through some of his most vicious attacks on Barack, including the "birther" conspiracy that he was allegedly not born in the US. She has said she struggled to watch Trump's first inauguration in 2017, breaking down in tears afterwards.
Michelle Obama's stance at Jimmy Carter's funeral was similar, as Barack Obama was seen alone talking in a relaxed manner with Donald Trump, next to whom Melania Trump was sitting.
Obama aides told CNN that "committed commitments" kept her away, but acknowledged that she was probably not flexible, as she was "still in Hawaii for an extended vacation."
Her spokesperson released a statement saying: "Mrs. Obama is sending her thoughts and prayers to the Carter family and all who loved and learned from the distinguished former president." (A2 Televizion)
