Jennifer Aniston spoke out to deny claims that she had an affair with Barack Obama in a resurfaced interview…
Speculation that the Friends star, 55, was romantically linked to the married former president, 63, has continued to swirl amid rumors that his marriage with Michelle Obama is headed for divorce.
After Michelle, 61, failed to attend both Jimmy Carter’s funeral and Donald Trump‘s inauguration – leaving Barack to attend solo – the video of Jennifer setting the record straight over the hearsay has started recirculating.
During an appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live! in October, Jennifer firmly shut down the claims when the host, 57, handed her a gossip magazine.
Wagging her finger, the Hollywood A-lister said: ‘Of all the calls you get from your publicist where you’re just like “Oh, no, what’s it gonna be?” or you get an email saying some cheesy tabloid is gonna make up a story — and then it’s that…’
‘I was not mad at it,’ she then added with a giggle, before clarifying that the story is ‘absolutely untrue.’

Speculation that the Friends star, 55, was romantically linked to the married former president, 63, has continued to swirl amid rumors that his marriage with Michelle Obama is headed for divorce
‘So, the truth about Jen and Barack is that there’s no truth?’ Jimmy confirmed.
Jennifer continued: ‘I’ve met him [Obama] once. I know Michelle more than him.’
Joking, Jimmy then asked: ‘Is there a truth about you and Michelle?’
‘That is not true,’ she said with a smile.
Jennifer is not known to be dating anyone currently, and has not been romantically linked to anyone for the past five years.
Meanwhile, Barack and Michelle have been married 33 years, and share daughters Malia, 26, and Sasha, 23.
Earlier this month, the former president signaled that his marriage is still going strong when he uploaded a sweet message to Michelle for her birthday.
‘Happy birthday to the love of my life, @MichelleObama,’ he wrote, alongside a snap that showed them holding hands while enjoying dinner.

The duo cleared up any speculation surrounding the story during Wednesday’s episode
‘You fill every room with warmth, wisdom, humor, and grace – and you look good doing it. I’m so lucky to be able to take on life’s adventures with you. Love you.’
The image featured a smiling Barack in a gray button down top and black dress pants, as he sat across from Michelle, who donned a dark V-neck sweater dress and a patterned headpiece.
They lovingly grabbed each other’s hands as they faced the camera.
Michelle has since shared the post to her own account alongside a simple caption that read: ‘Love you, honey!’
Immediately after it was announced that Michelle wouldn’t be attending Trump’s inauguration, fans of the political power couple became concerned that there may be trouble in paradise.
‘I’m calling it, the Obamas are getting a divorce,’ wrote one person on X, formerly Twitter.
Another posted: ‘An Obama divorce would not be on my 2025 predictions but it might happen.’
‘[Michelle] and Obama are on the outs. They are getting a divorce. She doesn’t want to be around him,’ someone else said.
‘Sounds like an Obama divorce is on the horizon, we’ve all seen it, they stop attending functions together,’ a fourth tweet read.

Elsewhere during her appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live!, Jennifer said she was left with ‘some sort of PTSD’ from having to belly dance in front of her family as a child.
‘You know, the Greeks love any kind of a family dinner, they would say, “Let’s get up and watch” – it’s like when you say to your child, “Play piano for everyone, let’s sing for everyone.”‘
‘I get such anxiety when my friends do that to their children.
‘I have inner trauma from having to perform and belly dance in front of my Greek aunts and uncles and grandmothers,’ she noted.
In 2016, the Morning Show actress told EW: ‘When I was a kid, they used to make me belly dance. On Christmas Eve.
‘My dad’s side of the family is Greek, so I would dress up as a little Greek girl, and then on Christmas, after taking belly-dancing classes, I would do that.’
And she did not think her family had good intentions, it was added.
‘It had nothing to do with Christmas, even,’ she said. ‘It was just, “Let’s humiliate Jen on Christmas.”‘
