“I couldn’t stand it for ten years.” Michelle Obama reveals how her marriage to former President Barack Obama wasn’t always rosy, especially in the beginning. Featuring young daughters Sasha and Malia and the two young spouses busy building their respective careers. “People think I’m bad when I say that for ten years I couldn’t stand my husband. Can you guess when? When the girls were little,” the former First Lady confesses in an interview with Revolt TV ahead of the launch of her latest film, The Light We Carry. With the frankness and frankness that characterizes her, which has led her in the past to talk about other thorny issues like menopause, Michelle explains how often, too often, we don’t talk about “how much work is necessary and how it’s hard to “make a marriage work even if you love each other madly”.
The former first lady then retraces those ten difficult years when the daughters were little “terrorists” testing marriages. Michelle and Barack met in 1989 and married in 1992. Malia and Sasha were ten and seven years old when Obama was elected president. They were “terrorists” from an early age who, like all children, “always cried and couldn’t communicate. They were irrational and always needed. But we loved her. So who’s to blame? ‘ she adds. However, as Michelle recounts the ups and downs of her marriage, she recalls never losing respect and admiration for her husband.
“In those ‘difficult’ ten years, we’ve been trying to have a career, but we’ve also had to take care of school and organizing who’s doing what. You want to know what? Marriage isn’t always 50-50. There are times , where I’m 70 and he’s 30, and others where he’s 60 and I’m 40. But that was 10 years out of 30 of marriage. I have 10 bad years out of 30,” admits Michelle. The presidential couple has celebrated 30 years of marriage in recent months. In October, Barack Obama actually posted some photos with Michelle on Instagram, including one from the wedding. Referring to his wife as “Miche,” the former president wrote, “After 30 years, I don’t know why you’re exactly the same and I’m not. But I know that I won the lottery that day, that I could.’ Don’t ask for a better partner.’
