Former President Barack Obama and former first lady Michelle Obama were captured engaging in sports activities near their Martha’s Vineyard estate, only three days after their personal chef, Tafari Campbell’s tragic death. Campbell drowned after falling off his paddleboard on Edgartown’s Great Pond near the Obamas’ summer property.
The couple is currently on their annual family summer vacation at the idyllic summer colony, and despite facing some criticism online, they have not publicly addressed the recent trolls or any potential hiring of a new chef.
The Obamas’ sports outing marked the first time they were seen in public since the unfortunate incident. Michelle was seen playing tennis at the Farm Neck country club while Barack headed to the Vineyard Golf Club. They were photographed participating in their respective activities, with Michelle donning an all-white tennis outfit and Barack wearing a lime green polo shirt.

He had lost his balance while paddleboarding, and despite efforts from a fellow paddleboarder to save him, Campbell could not be reached in time. His body was recovered the day after the incident.
