However, they were able to enjoy some quality family time when their dad made the trip to California to be with them.

VIDEO: Malia and Sasha Obama's style evolution

In photos shared by Daily Mail, the former US President was seen having dinner with his two daughters at Hamasaku, an expensive LA sushi restaurant.

While Barack had a great time visiting, Michelle couldn't be with them, as she was in New York at the same time being inducted into the National Women's Hall of Fame.

The three were spotted together on Saturday night exiting the restaurant as Barack waved to the staffers and turned down their offer for free dessert after.

His secret service staff patiently waited, with their car parked in the handicapped spot nearby for the next couple of hours, and escorted him away once done.

Barack even shared a throwback photograph of himself with his daughters on the same day, celebrating Banned Books Week.

The three were pictured enjoying a book that Malia had picked up as he wrote about celebrating books that had often been written by people of color or those from the LGBTQ+ communities.

Speaking to Vanity Fair earlier this year, Donald spoke about his Beyonce-inspired project and opened up about Malia's work on it too, having nothing but praise for the budding professional. 

"Her writing style is great," he said: "She's just like, an amazingly talented person. She's really focused, and she's working really hard."
