Michelle Obama’s marriage is just fine.

The former first lady fiercely clapped back — again — at the rampant divorce rumors surrounding herself and husband Barack Obama in recent months.

The 61-year-old told “Wild Card” listeners Thursday about how the couple not “going out on a date” often sparks speculation about “the end of” their longstanding romance.

“It’s like, ‘OK, so we don’t Instagram every minute of our lives,’” Michelle said during the candid episode. “We are 60. We’re 60, y’all.

“You just are not gonna know what we’re doing every minute of the day,” she continued.

Michelle has been married to Barack, 63, since 1992, and the couple share two daughters — Malia, 26, and Sasha, 24.

Although the former president has not directly addressed breakup chatter, he repeatedly honors his wife with sweet social media tributes on Valentine’s Day, her birthday and more.

The duo celebrated their 32nd wedding anniversary in October 2024.

At the time, Barack gushed via X that he “couldn’t have asked for a better partner and friend to go through life with.”

Michelle previously put rumors of relationship woes to rest in a May appearance on “The Diary of a CEO with Steve Bartlett,” saying “everybody would know” if they were struggling.

“I’m not a martyr,” she insisted at the time. “I would be problem solving in public. ‘Let me tell you what he did.’”

Elsewhere in Thursday’s interview, the former lawyer admitted that working motherhood coupled with her husband’s political success has “squelched” her personal aspirations.

“All of that stuff, it kind of cut my ambitions short a little bit,” she explained. “I don’t know if my ambition has ever fully been able to actualize itself.”

With that in mind, Michelle doesn’t have a single “regret” about missing Jimmy Carter’s funeral and President Trump’s inauguration in January.

The headline-making choices were an example of “using [her] ambition,” she explained, adding, “Whatever the backlash was, I had to sit in it and own it.”
