Meghan McCain, the daughter of the late Senator John McCain, has added fuel to the rumors that Barack and Michelle are getting a divorce.
In her latest podcast epsiode McCain told Tara Palmeri, I have been hearing this rumor that the Obamas are getting a divorce by reputable people. I’m not talking about TMZ. I’m not talking about Perez Hilton, although I love him, he’s my friend. I’m talking about like very serious journalists telling me that they’re hearing that the Obama divorce rumors are true.”
She continued, “Do you agree with that? Have you heard that? Do you think it’s just garbage?”
Palmeri responded, “Oh yeah! I mean I’ve certainly heard it for awhile, even before Michelle said she wasn’t coming to the inauguration, which also could be interpreted as like another act of resistance, which would only make her like more.”
Palmeri added, “But yeah, we’ve heard that for a long time. Like I just heard that they live separate lives.”

Here’s what Mediaite reported:
Conservative commentator Meghan McCain and Puck senior political correspondent Tara Palmeri poured fuel on the fire of the rumor that former President Barack Obama and his wife Michelle Obama are getting divorced in an episode of the former’s podcast released on Wednesday.
“Fast and furious loud, I have been hearing this rumor that the Obamas are getting a divorce by reputable people. I’m not talking about TMZ. I’m not talking about Perez Hilton, although I love him, he’s my friend. I’m talking about like very serious journalists telling me that they’re hearing that the Obama divorce rumors are true,” said McCain to start the conversation. “Do you agree with that? Have you heard that? Do you think it’s just garbage?”
“Oh yeah! I mean I’ve certainly heard it for awhile, even before Michelle said she wasn’t coming to the inauguration, which also could be interpreted as like another act of resistance, which would only make her like more — if that’s really true and they stayed together — like more of a baddie in the movement when like, there really is no one in the Democratic Party who is like holding that mantle aside from AOC,” replied Palmeri.
“But yeah, we’ve heard that for a long time. Like I just heard that they live separate lives. Like, it’s just, that’s just what happened. But they are kind of like America’s sweethearts in a lot of ways and it’s, so, I think it would be devastating,” added the political reporter.
Palmeri went on to note that the former first couple had made an Instagram post celebrating their anniversary, causing McCain to interject and declare that it was “a very weird photo, though, of her.”
