Michelle Obama Breaks Silence On Why She Didn’t Attend Trump’s Inauguration

Michelle Obama has explained why she skipped Donald Trump’s inauguration in January. She clarified that her absence, which sparked rumors about political tensions and marital issues, was solely for self-care.

In a recent podcast, she shared that she’s at a point in life where she needs to define things on her own terms, focusing on her well-being and therapy. She addressed the speculation, saying people assumed her marriage to Barack Obama was in trouble.

She emphasized the importance of learning to say “no” for herself and teaching her daughters, Sasha and Malia, the same. Obama also expressed her disapproval of Trump, previously calling him a “convicted felon” and “predator.”
