Meet Malia Obama's Harvard boyfriend, a prep school graduate rugby player who reportedly aspires to be a banker
Meet Malia Obama's Harvard boyfriend, a prep school graduate rugby player who reportedly aspires to be a banker
Feb 6, 2018, 19:04 IST
Rory Farquharson is 19 years old. He is a British student who joined the Harvard class of 2020 in 2017. Malia Obama is also 19 years old and is currently in her second semester at Harvard.
Obama was caught on camera smooching Farquharson (The Daily Mail identified him) at the Harvard-Yale football game in November 2017. TMZ published the footage.
Farquharson attended the Rugby School, a private school in England where the annual tuition is £35,000 ($47,000). Farquharson was "head of school" from 2015 to 2016.
He played rugby and golf and was a cofounder of the Blue Bunsen Society, the school's chemistry club. Anonymous classmates told The Daily Mail that Farquharson was "quite a catch" and "very popular."
In a letter to his 16-year-old self, which appeared in a Rugby School publication, Farquharson wrote, "You’re a lanky, over-confident public school boy, desperately trying to prove to your friends how much of a 'lad' you are and have failed miserably."
