It doesn’t matter if it’s the truth, the slander, if it is slander, is out there now.
That’s what the tabloids do, and this tabloid is connected to a former first lady.
The original story appeared in the Enquirer and it appears to be offline... the entire newspaper.
Technically, if it were not true, it could be libel rather than slander, as it is in writing.
More stories have been appearing, including one about her drinking while possibly pregnant - if that other rumor turns out to be true.

It DOES matter if it is the truth. But it it not slander on the part of the Enquirer in any case. Slander is spoken, libel is written.
By definition, if it IS the truth, it is NOT libel.
And, if it is NOT the truth, then it IS libel.
But, the Obamessiah’s “pocket-media” can easily be geared up in just a few minutes to “lead” or “headline” with the real story for as long as it takes to make the “bad” story go away.
Of course, he could always get his lap-dog congress to pass legislation making it a federal crime to even THINK about any aspect of the 1st lady’s personal life.
It’s the seriousness of the charge.
I believe that it is the same tabloid that names Hillary Clinton as being on Michelle Obama’s “hit list”, meaning enemy list. It also has Oprah and of course, Rush Limbaugh on the same list.
