Liu Xuehua

Liu Xuehua is a woman from Henan, China, whose love story once attracted wide public attention.

In 2008, she fell madly in love with a man named Mark, an African, and despite strong opposition from her parents, she resolutely chose to marry him.

Shortly after their marriage, she unexpectedly discovered that her husband Mark was actually the half-brother of former U.S. President Barack Obama. They share the same father, Hussein Onyango Obama.

Mark once promised Liu Xuehua and her family that he intended to settle permanently in China and would dedicate his life to protecting their marriage.

This cross-national marriage drew attention not only for the couple’s determination in love but also because of the dramatic and coincidental family connection to the Obama family.
