“Wait, you guys like each other?” Robinson asked in mock astonishment.
“Oh yeah, that’s from the rumor mill,” Michelle responded as her husband greeted her brother with a low five and hug. “It’s my husband, y’all.”
“She took me back!” Barack cracked. “It was touch and go for a while.”
“Because when we aren’t, people think we’re divorced,” Michelle responded.
Then the former president mentioned something quite hard to believe.

Michelle then assured their fans that she has always stood by her man, even in the most difficult of times.
“There hasn’t been one moment in our marriage where I thought about quitting my man,” Michelle asserted.
“And we’ve had some really hard times,” she continued. “So we had a lot of fun times, a lot of adventures, and I have become a better person because of the man I’m married to.”
“Ah, don’t make me cry now,” Barack quipped. “Don’t let me start tearing up now!”
