In June 2022, "Saints & Sinners" star Clifton Powell joined the "Dear Fathers Podcast" with hosts James Meeks and Jesse Alex. There, he opened up about his son, who shares the same name, dating Barack and Michelle Obama's youngest daughter, Sasha. Until that point, the duo had been secretly dating for nearly a year, though they had been photographed taking a stroll together in April 2022, which sparked dating chatter. With the proud father confirming that the pair were indeed an item, he explained that he felt it was his duty to instruct his son on being the best boyfriend.
"I text him all the time, and I say, 'Treat Sasha like you would want somebody to treat your daughter,'" Powell Sr. revealed. Clifton Jr. has not shared any photos of him and his girlfriend on social media. However, Mrs. Obama did hint at their relationship during an April 2022 episode of "The Ellen DeGeneres Show." Careful not to spill the beans on the identity of the lucky guy, the doting mother did confirm that both Sasha and her older sister, Malia Obama, were seeing people.
