Nearly a million likes, on both Instagram and Twitter, have poured in for the picture of the power couple who first met at a law firm in Chicago in the late 1980s where Michelle in fact for a time, mentored Barack who was fresh out of Harvard Law. They were married in 1992. The former FLOTUS took to Twitter to express her gratitude for all the wishes. "Feeling so incredibly thankful for my South Side roots, my soul-affirming partner and daughters, and every unimaginable twist and turn over these 55 years," she wrote.
Thank you all so much for the birthday love—I love you all right back! Feeling so incredibly thankful for my South Side roots, my soul-affirming partner and daughters, and every unimaginable twist and turn over these 55 years. Can’t wait to see what becomes of the next one! https://t.co/XPiPpFY4HT — Michelle Obama (@MichelleObama) January 17, 2019
Praise has also gushed in for Obama in spades with people commenting that they missed having a president who cared about his family. Thousands of Instagrammers and Twitterati have also commented and shared the picture wishing the former first lady on her birthday, whose bestselling work Becoming, that released in 2018, has proved to be an insightful read into the inner workings of her eight years in the White House, her marriage and her life growing up in Chicago, Illinois.
I miss having a president who truly cared about his wife. Happy Birthday Michelle!

I wouldn't mind if America became a monarchy for a couple decades just for Obama to be its first and only king to rule. 😊 — iiiAppleJuiceiii (@Roblox_Lover10) January 18, 2019
