Barack and Michelle Obama's 20-year-old daughter Sasha Obama is dating Clifton Powell Jr. , a 24-year-old son of renowned actor Ray Clifton Powell, reported the Daily Mail tabloid that he obtained images of the couple on the streets of Los Angeles.
According to the said outlet, Sasha and Clifton Powell Jr., a former college basketball player who now works as commercial director creating content for Nike and Peloton, began seeing each other after she moved to Los Angeles to study at the University of California last August after dropping out of her studies in Michigan.
Powell Jr., who goes by the nicknames Cliff and CP3, grew up in the exclusive California community of Ladera Heights and attended Village Christian High School in the San Fernando Valley. The annual tuition for the private school is USD 28,340.
After graduating from high school, Powell Jr. received a four-year basketball scholarship at the University of California, dropping out a year later to focus on his passion for film. He now works as a “creative writer/director”, according to the biography of his website, and has created content for large companies.
While her father has a career in Hollywood, her mother, Kimberly Powell runs some businesses, including an interior design company called WhatsUneed Designs and a catering company called Chef Kim, according to the newspaper.
The 29-year-old sister of Sasha's boyfriend, May Powell, is also an entrepreneur and runs her own beauty business called Suga Honey Glam Incorporated.
The news of Sasha's new romance comes just days after her mom, Michelle Obama, confirmed that the college student has a boyfriend.
“They loved the Jonas Brothers. Now they are bringing adult men home,” said the former first lady, 58, on the Ellen DeGeneres show Tuesday about her daughters. “Before they were just pop bands. Now they have boyfriends and real lives.”
Malia and Sasha grew up in the White House when their father was president of the United States for two terms, from 2009 to 2017.
Malia, 23, is dating Rory Farquharson, a British student she met at Harvard University in 2017.
The Obamas' oldest daughter now lives on the west coast with her younger sister after being hired as a screenwriter for Donald Glover's new Amazon project of “Atlanta”.
During an interview with Vanity Fair magazine, the 38-year-old Golden Globe winner praised Obama's writing skills and work ethic, after working with her on her next series for Amazon about a Beyoncé type character.
“He's working really hard,” Donald Glover said of Malia Obama. “He's an incredibly talented person. She is very focused and works very hard. His writing style is great.”
The director, who has just released the third season of “Atlanta”, chose Malia to share her experiences in the series, which could be called “Hive” and which, apparently, will be about a character similar to that of Beyoncé.
The Harvard graduate interned in Lena Dunham's “Girls,” and worked as a production assistant on the CBS sci-fi drama series “Extant” by Halle Berry.
