Apparently former first lady Michelle Obama has several rules for her husband to follow — and they are mainly in her favor. On the "Good Hang" podcast with Amy Poehler she revealed that she and the past president of the United States have a "deal" they agreed upon as partners.
"We have a deal, Barack and I, in our marriage," she confessed. "It started very early and it’s like 'I can tease you but you cannot tease me.’ So when he does, I’m like ‘Oh oh oh, wait a minute, what’s going on here?’"
"But when me, [daughters] Malia and Sasha are all of us together, he doesn’t stand a chance. We mercilessly go after him. Teasing is our love language and I tell him that. I say ‘When I tease you, it’s like a love tap,'" Michelle quipped in reference to her and Barack's two girls — who are 26 and 23 years old, respectively.
Michelle Obama heads to bed way earlier than her husband, Barack.
Michelle additionally admitted to enforcing a strict criteria for the climate of her and Barack's bedroom.
"The room has to be cold," she declared. "It’s a battle with my partner, because he’s always cold and I’m like ‘Do not touch [the thermostat].’ And sometimes I wake up hot and I’ll wake him up, ‘Did you touch the thermostat? You touched the thermostat didn’t you?’ and he’s like, ‘I didn’t, I swear to God!’ He now knows, and he’s afraid of the thermostat."
