Damn. You ever been to Sir Richard Branson's private island? I hear it's nice. Former POTUS and FLOTUS Barack and Michelle Obama are currently kicking back in the Caribbean after touching down on Branson's Necker Island last month, TMZreported Tuesday. Naturally, visual evidence has emerged of said kicking back, and it does not disappoint.
Necker Island, according toPeople, spans 74 acres and includes a resort dope enough to accommodate as many as 30 guests. Robert De Niro, Mariah Carey, and Kate Moss are among the high-profile individuals to have previously booked the island for some downtime. None of those people, however, have been POTUS or FLOTUS before.
The Obamas, judging by these photos, are certainly enjoying their well-earned time away from the increasing insanity of present-day America:
