Barack Obama (@barackobama) and Michelle Obama (@michelleobama) celebrated their 28th wedding anniversary this Saturday. The couple have always been head over heels in love and are the epitome of ‘relationship goals’.
Michelle posted her very first eponymous podcast this week with her husband as the first guest speaker. In the podcast, they discuss the beginning of their relationship and their vision for their daughters’ future. The former First Lady talks about how they’ve spent lots of time together during quarantine, and it is because of their time together they’ve been able to talk about their vision of the future. Barack goes on to explain, “When you and I think about what’s the inheritance we’d like to leave Malia and Sasha, more than anything what it would be is that they’re living in a country that respects everybody and looks after everybody. Celebrates and sees everybody. Because we know that if we’re not around, that those girls are in a society like that. They’ll be fine.”
Nobody is perfect, though. On Rachael Ray‘s talk show, Michelle told viewers that her husband is known for getting on her nerves, especially in quarantine. Since Barack was busy writing a book all summer, he didn’t have as much time for her. Besides the point, he still makes an effort to keep sparks flying in the relationship. The other day, he took her on an amazing lunch date on the beach with jazz and wine.
The longtime couple also took their love for one another to social media. They posted photos with captions expressing their appreciation for one another. In Barack’s post, he points out “Every day with @MichelleObama makes me a better husband, a better father, and a better human.” Michelle also had some sappy things to say about Barack.
Additionally, Barack and Michelle decided to use their popularity to encourage everyone to vote in the upcoming election. In her post Michelle says, “And this year, we have a request for you — pick one person in your life who might not vote and make sure they do.” The post got over 3.6 million likes.
