Michelle Obama is back! The former first lady made her first public appearance since Donald Trump’s inauguration took place in January.

On Thursday, Obama appeared alongside her brother, Craig Robinson, at the live taping of their new podcast, “IMO,” at SXSW in Austin, Texas.

The “Leave the World Behind” executive producer hit the stage wearing burnt orange pants and a matching jacket over a black top. She paired her look with black boots and wore her hair styled in bohemian braids.

Since the new year kicked off, Obama, 61, has been laying low from the public.

In fact, her last public appearance was in December 2024 on “The Jennifer Hudson Show.”

She skipped attending the funeral of former President Jimmy Carter on Jan. 9 and also declined to watch Trump, 78, be sworn into office on Jan. 20.

Michelle’s husband, Barack Obama, attended both events solo.

However, Page Six exclusively reported that the “Becoming” author was on an “extended holiday vacation” in Hawaii.

As fans continued to wonder about Michelle’s whereabouts, rumors surfaced that she and Barack, 63, were having marital issues.

However, the former president shut down the speculation by posting a sweet birthday shoutout to the “love of [his] life” and by sharing a loved-up Valentine’s Day selfie of them.

“Thirty-two years together and you still take my breath away. Happy Valentine’s Day, @MichelleObama!” he wrote on Instagram Feb. 14.

Sources told Page Six that Michelle has been “checked out” of Washington, DC, life since their family left the White House in 2017.

“They don’t pretend that they have this Camelot relationship,” a source who worked with the Obamas told us. “They’re not trying to present that they’re this magical couple.”

Barack and Michelle met in 1989 and tied the knot three years later.

They share daughters Malia, 26, and Sasha, 23.
