DEVELOPING: Sasha Obama was spotted in Los Angeles appearing to be depressed as she was seen for the first time since parents divorce talk.
The 23-year-old youngest daughter of Michelle and Barack Obama appeared tense and preoccupied as she strolled through Los Angeles clutching a handful of books.
Among them was the 2021 novel Bewilderment by Richard Power, which tells the emotion-charged story of a widowed astrobiologist struggling to raise his neurodivergent son.
With its themes of loss, parental angst and resilience, the book is a heavy read â but perhaps apt for someone navigating a heartbreaking rift in her own family.

Is the bromance over?
Michelle Obama is done with the D.C. drama. According to sources, the former first lady and husband Barack Obamaâs romance may be at risk as she seemingly wants to separate herself from politics. An insider discussed the divorce rumors circulating about the couple, saying, the speculation âis getting a lot of D.C. peeps talking. The noise is getting louder. Iâm told she was furious at seeing her husband yukking it up with Trump at the Carter funeral.â As OK! previously reported, Michelle was notably absent from the service, in which Barack and Donald were caught having a seemingly friendly conversation. Another source noted that Michelle can be difficult to persuade if she doesnât want to do something.
âYou cannot tell Michelle what to do â no one can. Thatâs why she could not be persuaded to stump for Joe Biden during the last election,â they dished. Amid the chatter about their relationship, those close to the Obamas â who share daughters Malia, 26, and Sasha, 23 â claimed they never tried to paint their marriage as perfect.
âThey donât pretend that they have this Camelot relationship,â the source spilled. âTheyâre not trying to present that theyâre this magical couple.âAnother confidante alleged Michelle has been âchecked outâ of politics since the duo concluded their 2009-2017 service in the White House. The source added thereâs been ânonstop chatter that Michelle is fed up with the political circus, and pretending everything is OK with Barack all the time.â âWhat this will all lead to is to be revealed in time,â they noted. Though the politicians have a $8.1 million home in D.C., Michelle is apparently spending most of her time in their $11.75 million ocean-front compound in Martha Vineyard. The Obamas were last spotted together in L.A. in December at Hollywood Italian eatery Mother Wolf. Despite the rumors they are going through a rough patch, Barack, 63, shared a touching social media message about his wife for her 61st birthday on Friday, January 17. “Happy birthday to the love of my life,
@MichelleObama. You fill every room with warmth, wisdom, humor, and grace â and you look good doing it,” he penned. “Iâm so lucky to be able to take on life’s adventures with you. Love you!”The photo showed the pair smiling wide as they held each otherâs hands across the table. The upload came after a source claimed Michelle skipped out on Carterâs funeral because she did not want to face the president-elect, as she “fundamentally believes [Trump] is a threat to American democracy.””Sheâs never been fake, and sheâs never been phony,” the insider added. “Sheâs always been very deliberate about where and how she shows up.” “Thereâs no overstating her feelings about [Trump]. Sheâs not one to plaster on a pleasant face and pretend for protocolâs sake,” they continued. “Michelle doesnât do anything because itâs expected or itâs protocol or itâs tradition.” They concluded: “She showed up reluctantly for the election. They were united, but she doesnât have to unify around [Trump]. She doesnât have to say anything. Her absence speaks volumes. She would be expected to swallow her feelings in the spotlight if she attended his second inauguration.”

I guess I should feel differently but I don’t. What I see is a person who is sad, a lot on her mind and I am guessing for the first time she’s alone. The girls were unfortunate to be given to the wrong ppl. They are victims IMO. She’s not a Hunter Biden who should be in jail.
Also, I never voted for Obama or did not
like him from the beginning. He & Michelle are trash.
