Barack Obama pays tribute to ‘best friend’ Michelle on her 57th birthday with sweet throw-back photo
The former President posted a throw-back photo of the former First Lady from the 1990s on Twitter and Instagram today alongside the caption: ‘Happy birthday to my love, my partner, and my best friend. Every moment with you is a blessing. Love you, Miche.’
He was joined by a crowd of online well-wishers including vice-president elect Kamala Harris, actors Viola Davis and Regina King, chat-show hot Ellen and the Rev Al Sharpton as well as The UN’s gender equality body, UN Women, who thanked her for ‘inspiring the women of today’.
