On Saturday, Malia Obama was photographed kissing her new love interest before the Harvard -Yale football game.

The 19-year-old boy has been identified as Rory Farquharson who was once the head boy at one of England’s most prestigious schools before becoming a fellow classmate with Malia at Harvard.

Malia, also 19 years old, and Rory’s kiss was caught by paparazzi, and the young adults have been caught in a media storm ever since.

Last year, Rory made the move from the UK to the US to join the Ivy League university.

Rory attended one of the top ‘public’ schools in the United Kingdom, Rugby School. The institution is just a rung below the more elite Eton and Harrow.

It charges more than $42,500 a year for tuition and board.

An insider revealed to the Daily Mail that Rory was considered to be “quite a catch” as he was “very popular”.

He will definitely be able to find common ground with Barack Obama, if he is introduced to Malia’s parents, as Rory represented his school at golf and was a member of the Blue Bunsen Society.

Malia took a gap year before starting her studies at Harvard this year.

At the football game, Malia was seen wearing an over-sized yellow puff jacket, white leggings and boots. She also showed her support to her university by wearing a hat with Harvard “H” embroidered on it.

Rory also showed his support by wearing a red long-sleeved Harvard t-shirt.

A year ago, Barack Obama revealed that Malia and her younger sister, Sasha, had already started dating. The former US president said he was “pretty relaxed” about it since the family have Secret Service protection.

“They've had Secret Service. There's only so much these guys can do,” Barack joked.
