Michelle Obama’s 25th Wedding Anniversary Message To Husband Is Everything

In honor of their 25th wedding anniversary today, former First Lady Michelle Obama shared a sweet message to her husband former President Barack Obama on Twitter along with a black-and-white photo from their wedding day.

She wrote:

“A quarter of a century later, you’re still my best friend & the most extraordinary man I know,”

The two met in Chicago, when Michelle (née Robinson) was assigned to advise a young Barack at the law firm he was working at for the summer during law school. Despite his requests, she refused to date him until he offered to quit the job, making the relationship more appropriate. They had ice cream for their first date — Baskin-Robbins, he’s said — and were in a relationship for three years before tying the knot in 1992.

Here’s what she shared:

Happy 25th anniversary @barackobama. A quarter of a century later, you're still my best friend & the most extraordinary man I know. I 💕 you.
