According to The Cut, last August, the former first daughter moved to L.A. after transferring to USC, and now, she reportedly has a boyfriend. The Daily Mail claims she’s dating Clifton Powell Jr., a commercial director and the son of actor Clifton Powell.


Powell Jr, who goes by the nicknames ‘Cliff’ and ‘CP3’, attended Village Christian High School in the San Fernando Valley. The 24-year-old never made any secret of his ambition for a life outside of sport, writing in his basketball bio that he hoped for a career as a broadcaster.

His mom, Kimberly Powell, reportedly runs a few businesses including an interior design company called ‘whateverUneed Designs’ and a catering company called Chef Kim. Powell Jr. also has a 29-year-old sister, May Powell, who also an entrepreneur and runs her own beauty business called Suga Honey Glam Incorporated

The outlet also reported that both Sasha and her sister Malia, 23, are now based on the West Coast with the older Obama sibling taking a job as a script writer for Donald Glover’s new Amazon project after graduating from Harvard last year. Sasha’s older sister Malia has been dating Brit Rory Farquharson since meeting him at Harvard in 2017.

On Tuesday, former First Lady Michelle gave an update on her daughters during an appearance on the Ellen Show.

She told the host, “They loved the Jonas Brothers. Now they are bringing grown men home.”

“Before it was just, like, pop bands. Now they have boyfriends and real lives,” she continued.
