The Obamas were recently seen vacationing at a private island in the British Virgin Islands after former President Barack Obama handed over the White House to current President Donald Trump in January.
A photo of Barack kitesurfing with billionaire Richard Branson also recently went viral on social media.
The Obamas were also recently spotted vacationing on a beach. Michelle appeared to be wearing her hair braided while Barack donned a backward ball cap.
“Obama’s on vacation with the hat backwards. He’s never coming back,” joked one Twitter user.
The Obamas have kept a relatively low profile since leaving the White House in January. Michelle has been making a couple surprise visits to students at Washington, D.C., schools, and the couple has signed a lucrative book deal with Penguin Random House publishing company, The Huffington Post reported.
