Former US First Lady Michelle Obama opened up about a persistent domestic dispute with her husband, former US President Barack Obama: It’s the bedroom thermostat. During a recent appearance on Amy Poehler’s “Good Hang" podcast, Michelle Obama revealed differing preferences for sleeping temperatures from Barack Obama which results in fights between the couple.
“Sometimes I get into bed freezing, and other times I feel like I need to take my skin off," Michelle Obama said explaining that while Barack Obama prefers a warmer environment, she favors a cool 68 degrees. She also said that she has warned Barack Obama, “Do not touch the thermostat". Although, she often suspects Barack Obama of secretly adjusting it overnight.
Now Barack Obama is somewhat intimidated by the thermostat as when Michelle confronts him about the temperature changes, he says “I didn’t touch it, I swear."
Michelle quipped, “He’s scared of it now."
