Front page Daily Mail news today - Jennifer Aniston had/is having an affair with Barack Obama??

Any truth to this?

Jennifer is my bestie and she told me that it's not true, she was too busy training to get into the US olympic rowing squad. Sadly she failed and returned to acting.

Barack isn't into women.

Uricon2 · 25/01/2025 19:18

I don't blame her for not going to the inauguration, she despises Trump and why should she be a hypocrite? Jimmy Carter's funeral was more remarkable but maybe that was Trump proximity or I don't know, she was doing something else, or maybe she's just sick of the whole circus.

I'm not going to speculate about their marriage because all of us know the sum total of zero about it and I'm sure it suits certain parts of the Republican party to have these rumours. Perhaps they think it makes the sexual abusing misogynist they have had elected President look better (it doesn't)

JenniferAnistonForReals · 25/01/2025 19:18

They always cite the wrong Obama

PIVOT!

It was Michelle

Chuchoter · 25/01/2025 19:19

Reminds me of when Katherine Jenkins announced she hadn't had an affair with David Beckham!

You know this, because.....?

I literally know it is true, I saw them in Iceland buying some frozen curry together. Can you believe it!

Yeah, I heard that. It was a Slimming World friendly prawn one.

They are probably just Friends

I'm not particularly bothered if they are having an affair but I'm not sure why you'd think Obama wouldn't 'humiliate' Michelle by having an affair! Men for millennia have humiliated their wives in exactly the same way!

Anyone can have an affair but both Obama and Aniston have been famous for a long time without scandal. Both are very discreet. So I think this story is highly unlikely. If Obama were to have an affair, I can't see him doing it with a very famous actress.

But of course, none of us know any of these people so I guess it's possible.

I blame Meghan Markle.

Thewalrusandthecarpenter · 25/01/2025 18:33

I'm Michelle. Barack and I were on a break.

Winner!

Pleaselettheholidayend · 25/01/2025 19:24

I don't buy an affair, I do buy that they be about to divorce/already separated and not announcing because of brand reasons - they are still so well regarded and I feel a divorce announcement at the start of a Trump term would be catnip to Republicans/a blow to everyone else.

MayaPinion · 25/01/2025 18:07

Michelle Obama has made no secret of her distaste for Trump. I admire her for sticking to her principles and not attending.

Exactly. LOVE Mich! 💛

HollyKnight · 25/01/2025 19:24

The OP has already made claims about William having an affair, so it's just a short step to malign someone else unconnected.

NoCarbsForMe · 25/01/2025 19:26

Ermmm, think it is!.
What authority does one have to suggest it is not a paper that delivers daily news?
It may not be a broadsheet but nonetheless....

Well, "News" @Didshejustsaythatoutloud

Oh ffs. Some people have nothing better to do than gossip about shite it seems.

These rumors about presidents float around all the time. Remember all the talk of Melania divorcing Trump after his last defeat? Yet there she was at his inauguration.

Well, someone who looked a bit like her was there at his inauguration. With a very big hat that covered half her face. Dun-dun-DUUNNNNNN! 😉

I am JA and can confirm it’s bollox - HTH

Imposter. I and the real JA and yes it’s finally time to tell the truth, we had an affair. I used to sneak in with the secret service through the underground bunkers at the white house to rendezvous with Barrack.

Sincerely yours, Rachel 😃

Thread title: "Jennifer Aniston Barack Obama Affair"

Actual headline: "Jennifer Aniston denies affair with Barack Obama" 🙄

I think I might start a thread entitled "Every Mumsnet Reader Just Won A Ferrari".

I don't want a ferrari, too impractical. Is there a 'missing the point' emoji ?

Now you mention it, I did see them sharing a coke and furtive looks in my local last week…

🧐

Same here.

It is a right wing propaganda machine, that draws people in with gossip and tattle. It is full of lies, 'suggestions', divisive reporting, fear-mongering, racist , inaccurate, hate-filled, misogynistic rubbish.

phew, thank goodness mumsnet is here to do my critical thinking for me.

Isn't he gay (allegedly)?

Nah, they are just freinds.

If that were the truth they would be sued for libel on a daily basis. Just for clarity I don't and have never read the DM nor do I choose to read broadsheets like The Guardian.
They are both too extreme in their journalistic bias for my taste

🤣🤣🤣 They are sued all the time. The DM is a gossip rag. Even Wikipedia refuses to accept them as a reputable source. It’s basically the Sun for the people who like to think they’re middle class.
