Megyn Kelly unleashed a scathing remark on the Obamas’ marriage after Michelle Obama discussed their relationship amid divorce rumors surrounding her and Barack.
The 54-year-old former Fox News and NBC anchor reacted to a clip of Michelle’s latest ‘IMO’ podcast and declared that ‘I think she and he married the wrong people,’ on the latest episode of The Megyn Kelly Show.
On Wednesday’s episode of the former first lady’s podcast, Michelle Obama said: ‘I tell people – and folks think this is harsh – it’s, like “You’re gonna have a bad decade.”
‘I mean, I’ve been married to my husband for 30-plus years… If the odds were you’re going to be married to your partner for 50 years and 10 of those years could be bad, you’d sign up for it. You know, and that’s really hot it works out.’
But an unimpressed Kelly said on her show: ‘Is it Michelle? It’s not.’
After her divorce from Dan Kendall in 2006, Kelly boasted about her current husband Douglas Brunt and said that she has been ‘married for 17 and a half years and not one was bad.’
Daily Mail columnist Maureen Callahan appeared on Kelly’s show, further adding, ‘I can’t think of anybody I would go to for advice less than Michelle Obama.’
‘She really doesn’t know what she’s talking about,’ Callahan declared.

The rumors following the Obama couple were stoked after Michelle was noted to have been missing from her husband’s side at President Jimmy Carter’s funeral and President Donald Trump’s inauguration.
Obama, however, said she made those decisions for herself.
‘That’s the thing that we as women, I think we struggle with disappointing people. I mean, so much so that this year people were, you know, they couldn’t even fathom that I was making a choice for myself that they had to assume that my husband and I are divorcing,’ Obama said on her podcast.
‘That this couldn’t be a grown woman just making a set of decisions for herself, right?’ she continued.
The couple have each spoken openly about some of their relationship struggles, as Obama admitted that ‘there were 10 years where I couldn’t stand my husband.’
Barack himself admitted that he had been working to make up to Michelle after his two terms in the White House took a toll on their marriage, The Daily Beast reported.
The former first couple also had to contend with baseless gossip that Barack was engaging in an affair with actress Jennifer Aniston.
Kelly also recently went after Blue Origin in a rant about the recent controversial space trip. She branded the eleven-minute journey as ‘Jeff Bezos’ sexual fantasy rocket.’

On April 14, Amazon CEO Bezos’ Blue Origin spaceship soared to space for 11 minutes with a star-studded crew including singer Katy Perry, Bezos’ fiancée Lauren Sanchez, and CBS News host Gayle King.
However, since its brief launch, the women’s reactions and the flight itself has been receiving immense backlash from both stars and social media users.
And Megyn did not hold back while discussing it on her series.
‘The ladies of the Blue Origins mission, the space mission, they’re talking about it like it was Apollo 11. They think they’re Neil Armstrong,’ she began.
‘It’s amazing. They are getting ripped now, not just from the Megyn Kelly’s of the world, but from all these lefties, all these Hollywood celebs are going on Instagram and elsewhere and expressing their disdain for what these women did and how they’re celebrating themselves.
‘Wait until you hear how they talked about their 10-minute trip on Jeff Bezos’ sexual fantasy rocket.’
Megyn argued that the women ‘didn’t walk on the moon’ and had a far different experience than famous astronauts like Alan Shepard, who did in fact walk on the moon.
‘When he did his first space flight, it was the first space flight, like that’s the reason it was exciting. It wasn’t for commercial gain. It wasn’t to promote Amazon,’ the journalist said on her show.

‘If you don’t want people to think it’s frivolous, Gayle, then don’t have the f**king Kardashians craft-side as you take off and Oprah. That might have something to do with our reaction to this non-serious event, a PR stunt,’ Kelly said
‘It wasn’t with some women with her t*ts hanging out who needed a little extra attention.’
In an interview after the trip, Gayle said ‘there was nothing frivolous’ about their flight.
‘Whenever a man goes up … you have never said to a [male] astronaut, “What a ride.” [Don’t] call it a ride,’ she said. ‘It’s called a flight or a journey. A ride implies it’s something frivolous or lighthearted. There’s nothing frivolous about what we did.’
She added, ‘I’m very disappointed and saddened by [the hate]. What it’s doing to inspire other women and young girls – please don’t ignore that.’
However, Megyn strongly disagreed, cutting to the clip inside the spacecraft of the women floating.
‘I’m still stuck on the fact that Gayle King actually used the word “astronauts” in reference to [herself and the other women on the flight]. Like an actual astronaut,’ Megyn scathed.
‘You are there on a vanity project of Jeff Bezos and his fiancée. You’ve done absolutely nothing to deserve this. You’re sitting next to Katy Perry.
‘If you don’t want people to think it’s frivolous, Gayle, then don’t have the f**king Kardashians craft-side as you take off and Oprah. That might have something to do with our reaction to this non-serious event, a PR stunt.’
