The internet couldn’t stop buzzing… Were the Obamas headed for divorce? After weeks of speculation, the power couple finally addressed the rumors — and they did it with humor, honesty, and heart. In a rare joint appearance on the podcast “Michelle Obama: The Light Podcast,” the former U.S. President and First Lady put all speculation to rest with a playful yet powerful conversation. Barack joked, “She took me back… it was touch and go for a while!” — and Michelle made it clear that there was never a moment she considered leaving her husband.

These are the kinds of things that I just miss, right?
So I don't even know this stuff's going on.
And then somebody will mention it to me, and I'm all like, what are you talking about?
There hasn't been one moment in our marriage where I thought about quitting my man.
And we've had some really hard times, but we have had a lot of fun times, a lot of adventures.
And I have become a better person because of the man I'm married to.
Okay, don't make me cry now, right at the beginning of the show.
Don't let me start tearing up now.
