Michelle's reason for why Barack experiences cold nights - Michelle takes charge: covers all aspects.
In an hilarious tale spilled to comedian Amy Poehler on her podcast, "Good Hang," Michelle Obama (61) opens about an age-old domestic struggle shared by many couples: the thermostat battle. Specifically, it's a running feud between her and her husband, Barack Obama (63), whose assertion that he's always freezing cold in their bedroom doesn't fall on deaf ears with Michelle.
It's a no-go for Barack when it comes to tampering with the thermostat, the temperature controller in their household. "The thermostat is off-limits," Michelle declares, and she's swift to call him out when something's amiss. "I wake up drenched in sweat, asking him if he dared to touch the thermostat again," she says, laughing as she reenacts Barack's embarrassed reaction for Poehler.
Michelle expresses her no-nonsense stance regarding room temperature changes when Barack's asleep: "Don't touch a thing in this room, Barack. If you decide to turn yourself into a popsicle, I can't be held responsible."
Fast-forward thirty years, and Michelle Obama and Barack Obama are still going strong, having tied the knot since 1992 and raising their two amazing daughters together.
