Michelle and Barack Obama reached the 25-year mark of their marriage on Tuesday, and the former first lady celebrated the occasion with a heart-melting tweet.
“Happy 25th anniversary @barackobama. A quarter of a century later, you're still my best friend & the most extraordinary man I know. I [love] you," she wrote.
That message has since been retweeted tens of thousands of times and garnered hundreds of thousands of likes.
