Megyn Kelly poured gasoline on the hot rumor mill regarding Barack Obama’s alleged troubled marriage.
Earlier this week, Meghan McCain sparked speculation of a split between Obama and wife Michelle when she dished on their marriage.
“I have been hearing this rumor that the Obamas are getting a divorce by reputable people,” McCain said during a podcast interview this week. “I’m not talking about TMZ. I’m not talking about Perez Hilton. I’m talking about like very serious journalists telling me that they’re hearing that the Obama divorce rumors are true.”

Kelly, for her part, remained neutral regarding rumors that Obama is having an affair with Jennifer Aniston, but plenty of X users weren’t so vague with their theories:

The Jennifer Aniston part is questionable. Michelle was absent from Jimmy Carter’s funeral. I can believe a separation. However I don’t agree with Megyn stating it would be a political earthquake.

My unfounded theory is that this is PR. The rumors are deliberate, it’s not happening and the public denials are true. However, the rumors cast Barry as the bad guy in the divorce that is coming because it casts suspicion on him. I also think she will reveal a new partner,…

Perhaps.
There was, of course, plenty of snark, jokes and speculation:
And dating a white chick so much for BLM I guess he’s tired of being with a dude.

“Political earthquake” hardly, just a mild diversion. No one cares. The divorce is probably real, but the Aniston thing is probably a paid red herring. Like they did in the old days of Hollywood for gay actors.

And then there was this interesting little clip that re-surfaced.
After watching this, I’m totally convinced that the story about Jennifer Aniston and Barack Obama is true!
