During that time, the first lady and the President won over the hearts of many with their story and their love for each other. ‘Couple Goals’ was a term thrown around often when anything related to Barack Obama and Michelle Obama was mentioned. Even 30 years after marriage, the couple appears to be as smitten with each other as the first day they met.
Three Decades of Togetherness
Barack Obama first met Michelle in 1989 when she was enrolled as a summer associate at the Chicago-based law firm, Sidley Austin. Initially, she declined his offer to go out on a date but gave in later on. The couple started dating later that year and got engaged in 1991. Shortly after the couple welcomed two children. Michelle has been an unwavering pillar of support for Barack ever since his decision to step into the world of politics all the way to helping him handle the pressure and the responsibility of a nation.
