Michelle and Barack Obama may seem like they have an ideal marriage and that's exactly why she's now opening up — in an exclusive at-home interview with PEOPLE — about the time the former first couple sought help from a marriage counselor. 米歇尔和奥巴马的婚姻可能没有看上去那么理想,这也就是为什么米歇尔在和《people》杂志的独家采访中,首次谈论了这对前总统夫妇向婚姻顾问寻求帮助那次的故事。 “Because we're role models, it's important for us to be honest and say, if you're in a marriage and there are times you want to leave, that's normal — because I felt that way,” the former first lady, 54, says in the interview about her book, Becoming, out Nov. 13. “因为我们是很多人心中的典范,所以对我们来说,诚实这一点十分重要:当你们在婚姻中很多次出现想离开的念头的时候,那再正常不过,因为我也经常有这样的想法。”这位54岁的前第一夫人在采访中谈论到她即将在11月13日发售的新书。 “My mother would talk about leaving my father in the spring, when she'd do spring cleaning,” Obama says, recounting one story in her hotly anticipated memoir. Did she herself ever consider leaving Barack? “There were definitely times when I wished things were different,” Obama tells PEOPLE, “but I don't think I ever thought, ‘I'm just checking out of this.’ “ “我的母亲会在做春季大扫除的时候跟我说她将在这个春天和我父亲离婚。”奥巴马夫人举了她备受期待的回忆录中的一个例子说道。那么她自己是否曾想过要和奥巴马离婚呢?“毫无疑问,很多次,我都期望和现实不太一样,”奥巴马夫人告诉《人物》,“但是我从没想过离婚,我只想确认是否如此。” |
