Barack & Michelle Obama Joke About Relationship Woes Amid Divorce Rumors: ‘It Was Touch And Go For A While'
Barack and Michelle Obama are laughing off the rumors about their relationship being on the rocks. Source: Tom Williams / Getty Former President Barack Obama joined his wife, Michelle Obama, and her brother, Craig Robinson, for the latest episode of their IMO podcast, where the pair joked about the ongoing rumors surrounding their marriage. The siblings opened the show by teasing the 'very, very, very special' guest set to join them that day, teasing the fact that folks have been asking for this guest since the day the podcast was launched. 'This is the episode that everyone's been waiting for with bated breath,' Craig revealed, 'because we have my brother-in-law, your husband, the former president of the United States.' Michelle added, 'He made time in his busy schedule to come on. We are honored.' And the second President Obama joined the conversation, the teasing began, with Robinson joking, 'Wait, you guys like each other?' 'That's the rumor mill,' Michelle replied while Barack took his seat, quipping back, 'She took me back! It was touch and go for a while.' When her brother added that it was nice to have both Obamas in the same room, the former First Lady said, 'I know, because when we aren't, folks think we're divorced.' Rumors surrounding the status of Barack and Michelle's relationship have been swirling for a while now, which steams from Michelle's decisions not to attend certain public events after leaving the White House. More specifically, her decision to skip President Donald Trump's January inauguration. Back in May, during an interview on The Diary of a CEO with Steven Bartlett podcast, Obama talked about the speculation head-on, saying she's finally starting to feel she has 'permission to do what I want to do.' 'The beauty of my husband and our partnership is that neither one of us was really ever gonna quit at it, 'cause that's not who we are,' she said at the time. 'And I know that about him. He knows that about me.' On her own IMO podcast in April, Michelle talked further about her decision to skip the inauguration. 'People couldn't believe that I was saying no for any other reason, they had to assume that my marriage was falling apart,' she admitted. 'It took everything in my power to not do the thing that was perceived as right, but do the things that was right for me, that was a hard thing for me to do.'

'When you work on something, you have a whole team that's supported, but nobody ever gonna see it the way you see it. Sometimes, you might get so passionate, they're looking at you like, 'chill out' but to have a person that's right there like 'yup! mhmmm', to have someone on your side fully hear you and don't think your visions are crazy, don't think that what you see or what you feel is crazy…' She continued, 'I'm really big on how you handle me, and I feel like you got to handle me like a cup of tea. How would you walk with a cup of tea versus how you would walk with a bottle of water? You walk with a bottle of water, you're like, shaking the water, you throwing it up and down. With a cup of tea you walk slower. You're more calm, you're more delicate. And even when you sip it, what happens if you sip the tea too, too fast? You're going to burn your tongue. I am a cup of tea.' Snap, snap, snap . Heard you, Teyana! 'I feel like he handles me as such, you know, he's very, very gentle. It allows me to feel warm and to feel safe and not be in survival mode,' she said in closing.

On Wednesdays, We Wear Black! Our Fave Goth Girlie Is Back For More Creepy, Kooky & All Together Ooky Spooks In ‘Wednesday' Season 2 Trailer
Source: Netflix Our favorite goth girlie is BACK and broodier than ever in Wednesday, season 2 which drops the titular character in the middle of another spooky mystery with Enid's life on the line. Check out the long-awaited trailer below: Returning to direct the smash hit series is Tim Burton who dials up the dreary deliciousness in the seemingly sinister season. 'For me, it was enjoyable just because I love the cast,' he said about filming the second season. 'It was a very strong group of people, and having the opportunity to work with some new cast members this season, it's a mixture of something beautiful about the old, and beautiful about the new.' Reigning as Netflix's biggest series of ALL-TIME with over a billion minutes viewed, Wednesday is primed to shatter its own record with bankable star Jenna Ortega at the center of the macabre mayhem. Source: Netflix 'It's still quite difficult to comprehend,' said Ortega about the massive success of the show. 'I see the effects and changes that it's had on my life and my castmates' lives, but it's something that you're very detached from. If you see a number, it looks kind of crazy, but it's not like I've seen it in a room or anything like that. I just try not to pay too much attention to that stuff because success for me is more about feeling accomplished and being able to put something out into the world and feel proud. It's wonderful that it's been received so well, because there's a lot of pressure. When we started the show, I was 18 and had never worked with a director as big as Tim. I had led a show before, but not with a character that was so well known and loved prior to me joining. It's a relief, but I would be lying if I didn't say that I still don't feel super anxious or feel like I have something I need to live up to every day on set. Maybe that's a good thing, but it hasn't gotten easier.' Building on the success of season 1, the series adds bigger stakes and a slew of guest stars including Lady Gaga, Thandiwe Newton, Christopher Lloyd, Haley Joel Osment, Jamie McShane, Joanna Lumley, Frances O'Connor and more. Source: Netflix And yes, our beloved Addams Family returns with its lovable dysfunction and some deep, dark family secrets seeing the light of day. Source: Netflix 'Family weaves quite heavily into this season,' said Burton in an interview with Tudum . 'One of the most interesting things about Wednesday is the Addams family mythology. This idea of the whole Addams family being drawn back to school at this point in their lives is interesting, and it causes friction. This show is visually heightened, but at the heart of it are very real family dynamics.' Will you be seated for Wednesday season 2? Tell us down below! The post On Wednesdays, We Wear Black!
