Michelle Obama has addressed persistent rumors about her marriage to Barack Obama amid allegations of an affair involving Jennifer Aniston. On January 30, 2025, the former First Lady shifted the focus, announcing plans for a memorial garden honoring Hadiya Pendleton at the Obama Presidential Center. “Her memory will be honored at the next memorial service in Chicago,” Michelle shared in a heartfelt Instagram post. Pendleton tragically lost her life in 2013. Michelle’s message highlighted their ongoing commitment to meaningful projects rather than addressing the rumors directly.
