Rumors are swirling that Barack Obama‘s divorce is imminent. According to an exclusive report, the Obamas are facing a blockbuster divorce with a $70 million fortune up for grabs.
The insider said a potential divorce could affect the couple’s business contacts and close friends who will be forced to pick sides.
“The level of rumor and speculation around the Obamas’ marriage has hit a fever pitch,” one source revealed. The insiders note that neither Barack or Michelle has denied the divorce rumors. “It’s been made worse by the fact that neither Barack nor Michelle have addressed it.”
Michelle Obama‘s absence was very noticeable at former President Jimmy Carter’s memorial service in Washington, DC, which was attended by President Donald Trump and First Lady Melania Trump.
Michelle’s office claims she had a “scheduling conflict.” Another source said she was staying at one of her homes in Hawaii.
Both Barack and Michelle have powerful connections in the political, entertainment, and business worlds. Those connections will be put to the test if the Obamas split.
The once powerful couple counts many A-listers among their closest friends, including Ellen DeGeneres, Tyler Perry, Oprah Winfrey, Gayle King, Kamala Harris, and George Clooney.
“Sure, somebody like Tyler Perry is going to be able to continue to maintain friendships with both of them. But further down the A-list pecking order, people are going to have to pick sides,” the insider said.
“The part that gets tricky is if the hypothetical split becomes acrimonious,” the insider added. “Nobody wants to get on either of the Obamas’ enemies list – but you can’t rule out the possibility of that happening. All of their Hollywood pals are very much in wait-and-see mode as the rumors continue to circulate.”
The source said Michelle could walk away with more than half of Barack’s $70 million net worth, including his real estate portfolio of 6 or 7 homes and multiple luxury cars.
“The Obamas are beyond the point where they need to do something publicly – like take a romantic vacation or kiss in public – to shut down all the rumors and speculation. It’s suspicious that they haven’t taken that step yet, and it’s making their famous friends in Hollywood nervous,” the insider added.
