Former US President Barack Obama makes surprise appearance on podcast with Michelle Obama

Former US President Barack Obama made a surprise appearance on the IMO with Michelle Obama and Craig Robinson podcast and video show, which aired on Wednesday. The former first couple addressed rumours of divorce, with Michelle stating: "There hasn't been one moment in our marriage where I thought about quitting my man."

Speculation that the pair had split began earlier this year after the former first lady did not join her husband at several high-profile events, including Donald Trump's inauguration and the funeral of former President Jimmy Carter.
