Barack Obama Wishes Michelle Obama a Happy 56th Birthday In the Sweetest Way

From Oprah Magazine

• President Barack Obama took to social media to post four previously unseen snapshots from a photo booth with former First Lady Michelle Obama in honor of her birthday.

• Born on January 17, she turns 56 today.

Happy Birthday to former First Lady Michelle Obama! Never one to turn down an opportunity to pay tribute to his wife, President Barack Obama took to Twitter and Instagram to post a romantic photo booth picture of him and Mrs. Obama on January 17, for her 56th birthday.

In the series of four snapshots, the Obamas—who celebrated their 27th anniversary last October—are cozied up clearly having fun in front of the camera, with the former President flashing a peace sign and giving a kiss on the cheek to his beloved, who'll be joining Oprah on the New York leg of her 2020 Vision Tour.

"In every scene, you are my star, @MichelleObama! Happy birthday, baby!" wrote Barack Obama in the caption. Even after raising two daughters, Malia, 21, and Sasha, 18, while going through the stress of eight years in the White House, the Obamas clearly can't get enough of each other!

So this is what true love looks like.

Although the Becoming author hasn't shared a birthday message on social media herself yet, in a post celebrating the occasion in 2019, she called her husband "my soul-affirming partner."

This time last year, the former president went a different route to pay tribute on his wife's birthday. In an equally sweet gesture, he posted a throwback photo of the young couple, writing, "I knew it way back then and I’m absolutely convinced of it today—you’re one of a kind."

All we know is that if this is Barack Obama's birthday tribute to his wife, we can't wait to see what his Valentine's Day post will look like this year.
