The former U.S. president and first lady are now experiencing life as empty nesters.
Their children have formed a close friendship over the years and have now taken it a step further by becoming roommates.
Barack and Michelle Obama share two daughters, and online users say one looks “like her dad,” while the other is a “mini” version of her mom.
Now in their 20s, Malia and Sasha Obama have earned praise from their parents.
The siblings share a deep connection that has guided them through life in the public eye.
Nearly four years after their father’s presidency ended, both were in college — Malia at 22 and Sasha at 19 — when the pandemic brought them back home.
“Malia and Sasha have been with us almost continuously since March, with just a few breaks,” Barack divulged in a joint November 2020 interview.
With their daughters back home, the Obamas appreciated the unexpected time together. Barack noted that having their children join them for dinner each night, playing games, and watching movies brought them a great deal of joy.
As they grew older, the sisters became even closer.
“I think part of what’s been also wonderful is seeing Malia and Sasha become such great friends,” Barack expressed.
Though three years apart, their younger days involved the usual sibling rivalries — from borrowing clothes to playful disagreements, according to their father.
The duo’s bond has only strengthened, and as young adults, they chose to share a home. In a November 2022 interview, Michelle admitted she tempered her excitement when Malia and Sasha decided to move in together, not wanting to influence their decision.
