Over the past few months, rumors have been swirling that Barack and Michelle Obama are heading for divorce. These claims allege that Barack and Michelle have been living “separate lives” for quite some time.

Now, some candid dating advice that Barack offered amidst these divorce rumors has been revealed.

Barack’s Dating Advice

Michelle, 61, has been hosting her IMO podcast with her older brother Craig Robinson, 64, since March.

On Tuesday’s episode, they sat down with the AirBNB CEO Brian Chesky, 43. Barack, 63, has acted as a mentor for Brian for many years. During that time, they’ve become so close that they’ve discussed their personal lives. This includes the unsuccessful dates that Brian has gone on. It didn’t take long for this to come up on Michelle’s podcast. Indeed, Brian quickly revealed the dating advice that Barack has given him.

“One time I was like — I met somebody and I was about to go on a date with — I went on a date with them and I remember telling him like, ‘Oh my God, she checks all the boxes and like this, this, this, this, this,’” Brian told Michelle and Craig. “And I remember him saying something. He said, ‘it’s not a checklist.’”

“He’s like, the right person is someone where they’ve got this weird laugh or snort and you find it really funny,” he continued. “…It’s like, in other words, it’s not necessarily what you think you’re looking for. And you’re not dating a checklist, you’re dating a real person. And the real person makes you feel a certain way. I think it was like a really, really important piece of advice.”

Obama Divorce Rumors

This is an unusual time for Barack to be doling out dating advice. After all, rumors have been spreading for months that he and Michelle are heading for divorce after 33 years of marriage.

These divorce rumors escalated in a big way back in January, when Michelle skipped both the funeral of Jimmy Carter and the inauguration of Donald Trump. She was the only living former First Lady to miss both of these events, raising some serious eyebrows in the process.

“I have been hearing this rumor that the Obamas are getting a divorce by reputable people,” political commentator Meghan McCain said on reporter Tara Palmeri’s podcast back in January. “I’m not talking about TMZ, I’m not talking about Perez Hilton, although I love him, he’s my friend.”

“I’m talking about like very serious journalists telling me that they’re hearing that the Obama divorce rumors are true,” she added.

“We’ve heard that for a long time,” replied Tara, who has long covered Washington politics. “Like I just heard that they live separate lives.”

Barack Rumored To Be Dating Jennifer Aniston

The divorce rumors have even escalated to the point where it’s been claimed that Barack has moved on and is back on the dating scene. It’s even been widely claimed for months that Barack is secretly dating the former Friends star Jennifer Aniston. These rumors have gained so much traction that she was asked directly about them during an interview with the late night host Jimmy Kimmel back in October.

“I was not mad at it, but that is absolutely untrue,” Jennifer said of the rumors.

“I’ve met him [Barack] once. I know Michelle more than him,” she then claimed, alleging that she only met the former president at a 2007 Hollywood gala before he took office.

Watch Jennifer’s full defense of this in the video below. Unfortunately for her, however, many didn’t buy it.

While Barack has stayed silent about the divorce rumors, Michelle has attempted to shoot them down a few times. However, Michelle has also frequently used her new podcast to bash Barack, which has only added fuel to the claims that they’re splitting.

Only time will tell if the Obama marriage is actually able to stand the test of time!
