Breaking News: Former President Barack Obama and former First Lady Michelle Obama were spotted together in public for the first time in months, fueling speculation about the state of their marriage.

Nothing like a sweet date night to shut down breakup speculation.
Michelle and Barack Obama are shutting down those pesky divorce rumors the best way they know how: By being the cool couple that they are. The husband-and-wife duo were spotted out and about in Georgetown, Washington D.C. for a date night on Saturday, April 19.
In a video shared on Instagram and obtained by TMZ, the two can be seen grabbing a bite to eat at restaurant Osteria Mozza. According to the outlet, the two were reportedly greeted with cheers and applause from other diners.
In the snap, Michelle appeared to wear a gray blazer styled with jeans, and she wore her long braids in a half-up ponytail. For his part, Barack wore a black jacket and gray trousers.
The sighting marks the couple’s first in months after Michelle’s absence from events such as Jimmy Carter’s funeral and President Donald Trump’s inauguration.
Michelle addressed the internet’s theories that the longtime couple was heading towards divorce during a recent episode of the “Work in Progress with Sophia Bush” podcast. βThat’s the thing that we as women, I think we struggle with disappointing people,” she explained, referring to her decision to sit out the aforementioned public appearances. “I mean, so much so that this year people were… they couldn’t even fathom that I was making a choice for myself that they had to assume that my husband and I are divorcing.”
The former first lady came to the conclusion that she can’t worry about what others think as she figures out how she wants to spend the rest of her life. βWe start actually, finally going, ‘What am I doing? Who am I doing this for?’ And if it doesn’t fit into the sort of stereotype of what people think we should do, then it gets labeled as something negative and horrible,β she continued.
“If not now, when? What am I waiting for? How am I going to spend 20 years? Now is the time for me to start asking myself these hard questions of, ‘Who do I truly want to be every day?'”
