Michelle Obama, 61, Shows Off Her Body Amid Divorce Rumors

Ever since exiting the White House, former First Lady Michelle Obama has officially entered her IDGAF era, which we’ve seen through various signs. First, she embraced her stunning natural hair. Second, she left behind her demure, unblemished persona that she was known for when her husband was in office for two presidential terms. Thirdly, she’s making more time for herself! We love this for Michelle. She’s living her best life despite the gossip that she and her husband are going to get divorced.

After Barack Obama went to both Jimmy Carter’s funeral and Donald Trump’s second inauguration by himself, people started whispering that the once-perfect couple might be getting ready to divorce. However, those rumors have been put to rest after Michelle Obama stepped out for a date night with her hubby on May 27, 2025, in a jaw-dropping outfit. The two were seen for their first public outing in six months, and Michelle turned heads in a slinky black Zimmermann matching blouse and skirt complete with ruffles. She was seen wearing this outfit at SXSW earlier this year, and if there’s one way to make the haters quiet down, it’s to step out in a gorgeous look with your man for date night!

Michelle Obama turns heads with her new look

Michelle Obama is a woman of mystery, but ever since she and her brother started releasing episodes from their new “IMO” podcast together, we’ve learned a lot about the former First Lady. The launch of the podcast didn’t help the divorce rumors, which swirled when he was less than impressed with her new podcast, in which she discussed topics like how her husband doesn’t understand the importance of female conversations. Unlike her book, which he raved about, he was silent when she launched her podcast and didn’t give her a social media shoutout.

Still, we’re seeing more and more of her wild spirit and a second act for Michelle in her sense of style and her weight loss. We never used to see her in such skin-hugging looks, but the Zimmermann outfit shows off her curves in the best and boldest way. On Instagram, where she debuted her outfit, many commenters were worried about how dramatically she had slimmed down. Although some fans said she was “looking great,” others commented that she was “losing too much weight.” One even hinted that she might be on a weight loss drug such as Ozempic, like many celebrities, referencing the drug by saying, “Ohhh nooo not her on the O.”

You can’t win on social media! People will always have something to say (like that time when she wore an edgy braid), but Michelle Obama remains unbothered. She’s doing her own thing, unaffected by silly comments the public is making, and stepping into the spotlight after years of putting her husband on center stage. However, her cute date night pics have us convinced that everything is ok in Obamaland!
