Michelle Obama Breaks Silence on Daughter Malia Obama's Name Change
- Malia Obama, daughter of former President Barack Obama and Michelle Obama, premiered her short film The Heart at the 2024 Sundance Film Festival using the name Malia Ann instead of Obama professionally.
- Malia's decision to drop her last name follows her and her sister Sasha's desire to forge independent identities apart from their parents’ political legacy as they have matured into young adults.
- Michelle Obama praised her daughters for embracing their parenting principles and wanting to prove they earned their success while Barack Obama acknowledged Malia’s choice, saying, “You do know they’ll know who you are.”
- Malia, now 26, directed The Heart which was credited to Malia Ann, reflecting her effort to balance privacy and recognition in the public eye after growing up in the White House.
- The Obamas support their daughters’ independence and understand their need to push away from familial labels, indicating this step may help Malia establish her own career path outside their political spotlight.
