The actress could not stand the growing speculation on social media
Recently, old rumors resurfaced involving Jennifer Aniston, Barack Obama and his wife, Michelle Obama, in what some have described as a love triangle. This weekend, the famous Friends actress was once again the center of attention in the American media, which speculated about an alleged romance with the former president, which could have caused a rift between the most emblematic couple in the United States.
Although Aniston flatly denied any relationship with Barack Obama, the rumors only grew, generating even more interest in the media and among the public. The situation took an unexpected turn when Michelle Obama began to be absent from public events in which she traditionally accompanied her husband, which fueled speculation about the veracity of the rumors.
Faced with mounting pressure and the viralization of these rumors on social media, Jennifer Aniston made a drastic decision. The actress chose to disable comments on her official Instagram account, seeking to curb the attacks and avoid further questions from her followers about the alleged affair with former President Obama. The measure was seen as an act of self-defense, given that the actress enjoys great popularity in the United States, reports Critical Voices.
For many, this action by the actress represents a significant blow, since she is one of the most beloved and respected personalities in Hollywood. Aniston has been under public scrutiny since these rumors gained strength, especially when dealing with such influential figures as Barack Obama and Michelle Obama.
Amid the media uproar, Jennifer Aniston took advantage of an appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live! to categorically deny the versions that linked her to the former president. In the interview, the actress firmly stated: "I was not bothered by the rumor, but it is absolutely false," immediately disqualifying the speculations that were circulating at the time.
In addition to rejecting the versions about her relationship with Barack Obama, Jennifer Aniston made it clear that her relationship with the Obama family is very different from that mentioned in the rumors. The actress explained that she had had little interaction with Barack Obama, but that she knew his wife, Michelle, much better: "I have only met him (Obama) once. I know Michelle more than him," Aniston clarified, completely disassociating herself from any romantic ties with the former president.
