Former President Barack Obama was recently seen dining with his daughters, Malia, 26, and Sasha, 23, at Hamasaku, a renowned sushi restaurant in Los Angeles.
Notably absent from the family outing was former First Lady Michelle Obama, sparking renewed speculation about the couple's relationship.
Despite Michelle's absence, Barack was photographed wearing his wedding ring during the dinner, signaling continuity in their marriage.
The Obamas have frequented Hamasaku since at least 2022, as both daughters reside in Los Angeles.
Michelle Obama has addressed the ongoing rumors about their marriage.
In a recent episode of her podcast, "IMO With Michelle Obama and Craig Robinson," she explained that her decision to skip certain public events, including Donald Trump's inauguration and former President Jimmy Carter's funeral, was a personal choice aimed at prioritizing her well-being.
She emphasized that such decisions are often misconstrued, saying, "People couldn't believe that I was saying no for any other reason; they had to assume that my marriage was falling apart".
Earlier this month, the Obamas were spotted together on a date night in Washington, D.C., further dispelling rumors of marital discord.
Michelle has also been seen wearing her engagement and wedding rings during recent outings in Los Angeles.
Sources close to Michelle have indicated that she is considering spending time abroad to fulfill long-held personal aspirations, including living in Southern Europe.
This potential move is seen as part of her journey toward embracing a slower-paced life away from the public eye.
While the Obamas continue to navigate their post-White House lives, they appear committed to supporting each other's individual paths, maintaining a united front amid public scrutiny.
