“I’VE
had enough!” Furious first lady Michelle Obama hurled those fighting
words at her husband after he publicly humiliated her by flirting with a
leggy blonde foreign leader at South African icon Nelson Mandela’s
memorial service, sources say.
In a bombshell world exclusive,
The ENQUIRER has learned that in the wake of the mortifying incident,
President Barack Obama and his wife are now sleeping in separate White
House bedrooms.
Sources say an enraged Michelle is also preparing
to boot her hubby of 21 years out of their ritzy Chicago home – and
seriously discussing divorce.
“The smart money says the marriage is doomed,” said a close source.
“Barack and Michelle have had a rocky go for years and mainly stayed together for their daughters and his political career.
“But now Michelle is mad AS hell. She feels violated in front of the whole world, and screamed at him, ‘I’ve had enough!’
“She’s met with divorce lawyers and told Barack that she wants a life apart from him.”
An
Oval Office insider added: “Michelle will stay in the White House for
the rest of Barack’s term for appearances’ sake, but she made it clear
they’ll be leading separate lives.
“She’s moving into one of the
vacant bedrooms in the family’s private living quarters, and she’s
preparing to move his clothes and personal things out of their
million-dollar house in Chicago.”
Sources say Michelle, 49, hit
the roof after her lusty hubby was photographed brazenly flirting with
Denmark’s dishy female prime minister, Helle Thorning-Schmidt, during
the service for former South African president Mandela.
Obama,
52, laughed and whispered with the 46-year-old Danish beauty throughout
the solemn ceremony, at one point cavalierly caressing her shoulder.
The two also playfully snapped a “selfie” photograph together while Michelle shot daggers at them.
The Danish press has dubbed Thorning-Schmidt “Gucci Helle” for her love of designer clothes.
While
she lives in Copenhagen, her husband resides in Davos, Switzerland, and
the couple’s accountant reportedly said that her husband was “gay or
maybe bisexual.”
Obama’s outrageous antics with her made him the butt of international ridicule, with American media outlets going on the attack.
“New
York Post” columnist Andrea Peyser blasted: “(Mandela) was a man who
Obama compared at the memorial to Abraham Lincoln, Mahatma Gandhi and
Dr. Martin Luther King. And here was the president, publicly behaving as
if he was plotting his next hook-up. It was unseemly.
“…Not to
be outdone by the president’s bad behavior, the Danish hellcat hiked up
her skirt to expose long Scandinavian legs covered by nothing more
substantial than sheer black stockings.”
Famed body language
expert Dr. Lillian Glass, who evaluated the photographs at The
ENQUIRER’s request, was appalled at the president’s behavior. “This was
clearly extremely humiliating for the first lady,” Dr. Glass told The
ENQUIRER.
“The president effectively ignored her and acted like
he and the Danish prime minister were the only two people around. And
he did this with the whole world watching.
“The photos show
Michelle going through a series of emotions, ranging from shock to
anger and extreme jealousy. I think there are many changes occurring in
their relationship.”
The president’s staff was also quick to criticize his horn-dog conduct, sources say.
“Barack
already had enough headaches with his public approval rating
plummeting after the disastrous rollout of his ‘Obamacare’ health plan.
Now he’s walked smack into the worst marital crisis of his life,” said
the White House insider.
“Behind the scenes, his advisers chewed him out, saying the photographic images of his frat-boy hijinks will haunt him forever.
“On
top of that, women voters have bombarded the White House with letters,
phone calls and emails expressing sympathy for the first lady and anger
at the president.
“Even Obama’s top female advisers and friends like Valerie Jarrett were disappointed with him.”
Sadly
for Michelle, the spectacle in South Africa wasn’t the first time the
charmer-in-chief has crossed the line with other women.
But the
couple’s fight over his behavior with the sexy Danish leader was the
worst ever, “and they’ve had some doozies,” said the White House
insider.
“Rather than unloading on him in South Africa, where
their privacy was not guaranteed, or on Air Force One among other
high-ranking dignitaries, including George and Laura Bush and Hillary
Clinton, Michelle reserved her fury until they were back in their
private quarters in the White House. Then she went ballistic behind
closed doors.
“Barack has humiliated Michelle before, but this
incident was played out on the world stage. Practically everybody on the
planet saw what he did and realized that the president has absolutely
no respect for his wife.”
Meanwhile, The ENQUIRER has learned the
first couple plans to live nearly 5,000 miles apart when their days at
the White House come to an end. Obama reportedly plans to settle in his
native Hawaii, where his presidential library and political center will
be located. Sources say he’ll live with his longtime pal Bobby Titcomb,
who was busted for soliciting a prostitute in 2011.
Michelle will
remain in Washington, D.C., until the couple’s youngest daughter
Sasha, 12, finishes high school. Daughter Malia, 15, is a high school
sophomore.
For now, Michelle is gearing up for a nasty divorce
battle. But sources say she’ll most likely wait to slap Barack with
divorce papers until after he leaves the Oval Office, when he’ll likely
earn more than $30 million in book deals and bank $65 million in
appearance fees.
“Now that Barack has embarrassed Michelle in
front of the world, he’s going to pay a big, big price,” said the
insider. “Michelle has said she wants a huge chunk of his net worth.
“This divorce is going to cost him a fortune.”
