Former First Lady Michelle Obama will not attend
President-elect Donald Trump’s inauguration on Monday,
citing an extended vacation in Hawaii. She also missed
President Jimmy Carter’s funeral due to a “scheduling conflict.”
Since the passing of her mother, Marian Robinson,
in May, Michelle Obama has maintained a lower public profile,
though she supported Vice President Kamala Harris’s campaign before Election Day.
A source suggested her absence is intentional, reflecting her selectivity in appearances.
Former President Barack Obama will attend the inauguration,
despite their usual joint attendance.
His interaction with Trump at Carter’s funeral
recently sparked online speculation, highlighting their tense history.
Michelle Obama’s decision to skip the event is seen as significant.
