Michelle Obama’s absence from Trump’s inauguration raises eyebrows and sparks rumors about her marriage and political stance
Washington D.C.: Former President Barack Obama showed up solo at Donald Trump’s inauguration. His wife, Michelle, was noticeably absent, which got people talking.
Last week, it was confirmed that Michelle wouldn’t be there, but her team didn’t explain why. Some say she didn’t want to fake a smile for someone she sees as a threat to democracy.
This absence is unusual since former presidents and their spouses usually attend these events, no matter the party. It’s not the first time Michelle has skipped important occasions, either. Just last week, she missed Jimmy Carter’s funeral due to a scheduling conflict.
To counter the divorce rumors, Barack shared a heartfelt birthday message for Michelle on social media. He called her the love of his life and praised her warmth and grace. In the photo, they looked happy, holding hands and smiling.
