Former first lady Michelle Obama turned 55 today, and to commemorate the important milestone, her husband and former President Barack Obama shared a sweet throwback photo of the pair to social media that fans of the couple went wild for.
In a post shared to his combined 124 million followers on both his Twitter and Instagram accounts on Thursday, January 17, Obama wished his wife a happy birthday with a sweet message and adorable picture of the two from early on in their relationship.
The photo captures the former president sans gray hair with his arm around Michelle, who is wearing a patchwork jacket and large silver hoop earrings that are a perfect ode to the 1990s.
"I knew it way back then and I'm absolutely convinced of it today--you're one of a kind," Barack wrote in a sweet message to his wife.
In just two hours of going live, the photo has been liked over 2 million times on Instagram and has accrued more than 300,000 on Twitter, as well as thousands of comments between the two social media platforms with users also joining in to celebrate the former first lady's special day and express their delight for the adorable throwback photo.
