Michelle Obama talks about marriage dynamic with Barack Obama following divorce rumors

Michelle Obama is sharing a glimpse at her marriage dynamic with former president and husband, Barack Obama. The author and former First Lady talked about her daily routine and mentioned her preference when it comes to taking her sleeping schedule seriously. 

Michelle, who recently made a stylish special appearance in Austin, Texas, talked to Kylie Kelce on the 'Not Gonna Lie' podcast, where she candidly discussed how early she goes to bed and her husband's opinion.

"Bedtime is the best time of the day," she said on the podcast. "My husband teases me about how early I can go to bed. He doesn't understand the idea of getting into some good sheets and it is cool," she explained.

Michelle continued, "If we have got people in the house, I'm game. I'm there, I'm talking. You know, the minute we finish up, I'm trying not to go to bed before the sun goes down."

The former first lady also talked about her routine when she was raising her daughters, Malia and Sasha Obama. "The girls, they were good sleepers,' she explained on the podcast. "Bath time, seven-o-clock, bedtime 7:30."

She went on to say that she appreciates having some alone time to relax and decompress. "Then I had at least a couple of hours where nobody was asking me for anything," she detailed. Michelle told Kylie that her ideal bedtime is "anytime after dinner," to which the host responded, "That's lovely."
