‘Friends’ star Jennifer Aniston has finally spoken up about the escalating rumors that she was Barack Obama’s lover, which seemed to come out of nowhere.
According to RadarOnline.com, a magazine cover in late July addressed rumors that former President Barack Obama and Jennifer Aniston were having an affair behind his wife Michelle’s back with the headline, “The Truth About Jen and Barack.”
An insider said: “The goss is… Michelle and Barack are living separate lives, and Barack is f—— Jennifer Aniston,” one podcaster said, noting the story “obviously could be made up.” A month earlier, a Reddit user had asked: “Anyone else hear that Obama and Jennifer Aniston are f——?”
Jennifer Aniston appeared on Jimmy Kimmel Live to shut down rumors of an alleged affair with Barack Obama.
Jimmy Kimmel fired back with a question, asking if she was having an affair with Michelle “Big Mike” Obama instead.

Aniston, therefore, had to officially deny any undesirable association with the former leader of the free world, 63, since the “goss” gained so much steam. The 56-year-old Friends star asserted, “That is absolutely untrue,” during a visit to her friend Jimmy Kimmel’s late-night show in October. “There is no truth.”
Aniston was “appalled” by the rumors, according to an insider, and believed the program would give her a “safe haven” to put an end to them. For a while, it was effective. However, rumors of marital conflict erupted when Michelle, 61, missed two high-profile events in January with her husband of 32 years: the inauguration of President Donald Trump and the funeral of former President Jimmy Carter.
“There have been rumblings for months of trouble in their marriage,” our source said. “There’s little doubt they’ve been living separate lives.”
The Obamas, in opposition to Aniston, have refrained from the turmoil. Actually, things have been going as usual for the couple, who on January 17 exchanged lovely greetings on social media as Barack wished his wife a happy birthday and informed her: “You fill every room with warmth, wisdom, humor and grace and you look good doing it. I’m so lucky to be able to take on life’s adventures with you. Love you!”
“Love you, honey,” she replied online, accompanied by kissy-face and heart emojis. However, news outlets from L.A. to Washington, D.C., have persisted in covering a possible Obama split.
On the January 22 episode of her podcast, “Citizen McCain,” former View host Meghan McCain expressed her opinion, saying: “Very serious journalists telling me that they’re hearing that the Obama divorce rumours are true.”

Puck senior political correspondent Tara Palmeri, who was her guest, agreed, saying, “I’ve certainly heard it for a while, even before Michelle said she wasn’t coming to the inauguration.”
Instagram star Jessica Reed Krans even claimed on her Substack that she had gotten a direct message with very detailed details about the purported break between the Obamas and the former commander-in-chief. Other insiders continued to link the former commander-in-chief to the Morning Show star.
