Michelle Obama Is Diving Back into the Dating World—But It’s Not What You Think

Michelle Obama’s latest mission is helping seniors find love.

Netflix released the trailer of The Later Daters Nov. 13, and the series—executive produced by the former First Lady—is offering hope for seniors looking for love.

In the trailer the world gets a sneak peek at the six silver singles who are ready to embark on their next chapter of love. With the help of their children and a professional dating coach, the men and women will be set up on a series of blind dates with the hopes of finding their perfect match.

It’s not just dinner and a movie as the trailer for the show—which debuts Nov. 29—reveals the singles’ dates include extreme water activities, dancing, and some tough (and surprising) questions. Getting back out there isn’t for the faint of heart, however as one contestant notes, “Dating is not easy.”

But the despite the hurdles that come with romancing at any age, the series, per the synopsis,  “proves it’s never too late to find lasting love.”

The Later Daters—which is part of Michelle and Barack Obama’s Higher Ground production company—premieres exclusively on Netflix, Nov. 29.

It’s no surprise that Mrs. Obama is helping others find love, as she and the former POTUS have maintained their presidential romance for 32 years. And Michelle, 60, and Barack, 63, who are parents of Sasha Obama, 23, and Malia Obama, 26, aren’t shy when it comes fawning over each other and celebrating their romantic milestones.

In January, the Becoming author shared insight into their longtime love, and how they have overcome every season and stage of their romance as a team.

"We've made a lot of mistakes, we've gotten it wrong," Michelle said on a January episode of Jay Shetty's On Purpose podcast. "And after 31 years, we're getting better at it. And it gets better and better and better."

She continued, "I wouldn't trade in my marriage for anything in the world, with all the ups and downs, with all the running for president stuff. Talk about that being a big, gaping thing in our lives. But the good has outweighed it. And if we hadn't hung in there, we would've missed all the good."
