Michelle Obama finally reveals why she skipped Trump’s inauguration

Michelle Obama recently explained why she skipped Donald Trump’s inauguration, a move that sparked speculation and rumors.

In a conversation on her podcast with Taraji P. Henson, the former First Lady said it wasn’t about politics or personal drama—it was an act of self-care.

Now 61, Michelle shared that therapy helped her prioritize her mental and emotional health, even if it meant defying public expectations. “People assumed my marriage was falling apart,” she said, adding that it took strength to make a choice that felt right for her.

She hopes to pass this lesson on to her daughters: “Saying no is something you have to practice.” Though she attended Trump’s 2017 inauguration, Michelle has since been openly critical of him. Her decision now highlights the value of boundaries and living authentically.
