The former president and first lady have reportedly already divided their assets — a reported $70 million fortune — and are expected to go public with their separation later this year.
The news follows claims that tensions had developed in their marriage post-2024 election cycle. When Joe Biden dropped out of the presidential race in July, sources say the relationship between the Obamas — who had previously portrayed a united front — became "venomous." According to reports, Barack, 63, hoped that Michelle, 61, would pick up the Democratic banner but was left frustrated when she did not.
The rift became worse, according to insiders, after Barack supported Kamala Harris over Joe Biden during the 2020 election, something Michelle allegedly refused.
"He raged at her that she was handing Trump and the Republicans the election," one insider said, adding, "She's simply had it with politics. Nothing would have made her run."
