Divorce rumors have been swirling around the Obama family for quite some time now, and were only amplified after Michelle missed a number of important public appearances because she was vacationing alone. Instead of supporting Barack Obama, she skipped both Donald Trump's inauguration and Jimmy Carter's funeral, leaving America's 44th President to attend the events without her.

Now, MSN is reporting that Michelle Obama took a "bedroom dig at Barack amid divorce rumors" while on a recent podcast.

The comments came while she was making an appearance on Kylie Kelce's "Not Gonna Lie" podcast amid constant rumors that her and Barack are experiencing marriage problems.

The bedroom dig

Kylie Kelce, who is famous because she's married to one of the best NFL linemen of all time, Jason Kelce, has used her husband's fame as a springboard to launch a career for herself. One of those endeavors was launching her own podcast, and Kylie had said in the past that Michelle Obama was her "dream guest."

The podcast host shared a clip of the show to advertise Michelle's appearance.

In the footage, "Michelle discusses Barack mocking how early she goes to bed."

"Bedtime is the best time of the day," Michelle said. "My husband teases me about how early I can go to bed. He doesn't understand the idea of getting into some good sheets and it is cool."

"If we have got people in the house, I'm game. I'm there, I'm talking. You know, the minute we finish up, I'm trying not to go to bed before the sun goes down," the former First Lady continued.

In the clip, Michelle continued talking about her family's preferred sleep schedule:

"The girls, they were good sleepers," she added. "Bath time, seven-o-clock, bedtime 7:30 and then I had at least a couple of hours where nobody was asking me for anything. Maybe that's where I got the early bedtime from!"

Kylie Kelce added that it was "lovely" that Michelle's ideal bedtime is "anytime after dinner."

Obama marriage problems

While the comments weren't particularly saucy, should Michelle be talking about anything regarding her bedroom as America speculates on whether or not she and Barack are getting divorced? There have been reports that the Obamas are already splitting up their $70,000,000 fortune. Other rumors speculate that Barack's been having an affair with Jennifer Aniston.

Do you think that Michelle made the right choice in not shying away from talking about her marriage despite the divorce rumors?

Or should she be a little more selective about what she shares?
