Where Is Michelle Obama? SoulCycling, Brunching With Celebrities And Empowering Young Women

Michelle Obama’s tenure as first lady of the United States may have ended in January, but she’s remained an influential member of the Washington, D.C. community, staying in the public eye ever since returning from a brief getaway with her husband, former President Barack Obama.

The former first lady has been busy since moving out of the White House, attending lunches with activists and celebrities like the rock group U2 in New York, speaking for hours on end at public schools across the capital, writing recommendations for young women to go to school and, yes, even hitting up SoulCycle classes with members of her Secret Service squad when she can fit in a quick workout.

Michelle Obama promised her supporters she would remain involved in the national conversation and an active member of society following her husband’s departure from the Oval Office. Meanwhile, the former president has only infrequently used his press office to refute President Donald Trump’s Twitter accusations of wiretapping his offices in Trump Towers and several other incidents.

The two have also announced the creation of The Obama Foundation, based in Chicago’s south side, with an agenda impacting the entire world. Their work on the developing project remains yet to be seen.

"Send us your ideas, your hopes, your beliefs about what we can achieve together,” Michelle Obama said in a January statement announcing the foundation. "Tell us about the young leaders, companies, and organizations that inspire you. This will be your presidential center as much as it is ours. So we want you to tell us what we should be thinking about as we get to work.”

The former first lady’s White House mission to increase education access and opportunities for young women around the world has even apparently continued, with “Black-ish” star Yara Shahidi revealing in a W Magazine interview published Wednesday Michelle Obama wrote her a letter of recommendation for Harvard, where she attended college and met the future president, as well as three other schools.

The Obamas continued living in Washington, D.C. following Trump’s inauguration, moving into the upscale Kalorama neighborhood near where the president’s daughter, Ivanka Trump, moved with Jared Kushner in January. First Lady Melania Trump has declined to move into her presidential quarters, however, instead living out the first 100 days from her penthouse in New York City’s Trump Towers with her 10-year-old son, Barron Trump.
