Michelle Obama posted a heartwarming birthday tribute to her husband Barack as he turned 64 on Monday (4 August) and everyone is in agreement on one thing.
The former American First Lady, 61, took to Instagram to share a sweet photo of the couple looking as loved-up as ever to celebrate the occasion.
And after 32 years of marriage, the duo are seemingly just as obsessed with each other as they were at the beginning of their romance, as Michelle adorably referred to her hubby as her 'everything'.
She wrote in her caption: "Happy birthday to my love, my best friend, my everything! @BarackObama, even after all these years, you’re still the coolest guy I know."

Replying in the comments, Obama penned: "Love you, Miche! And thanks everybody for all the birthday wishes."
The birthday tribute comes just as the world simply cannot seem to get over Obama's age, with many people under the belief he was a lot younger.
People wrote on social media: "He honestly doesn’t look 64" and "Crazy to think he’s already/only 64."

While another added: "Hard to believe bro is 15 years younger than Trump yet last served a decade ago…"
However, after Michelle's birthday post on Instagram, everyone is making yet another point - they miss him in the Oval Office and want him to run again.
In their birthday messages, a lot of commenters also referred to Obama as 'president,' despite him not holding that position since 2017.
For those in need of recap, Obama served as President of the United States for eight years, after he previously worked as a senator representing the state of Illinois.

In 2008, he won the presidential election against Republican candidate John McCain, subsequently becoming the first African-American man to do so.
Four years after this, he won again, this time against right-leaning opponent Mitt Romney.
His time as the 44th president of the US came to an end in 2017 when he handed the White House keys over to Donald Trump, which left his long-time followers devastated.
Despite this, Obama has remained active politically and has campaigned for candidates in the American elections, including his ex-VP Joe Biden back in 2020.

He now spends his time running the Obama Foundation and publishing books about his life and political career.
But, it seems people really want him to run again and a lot of people still see him as their president.
One social media user wrote in the comments: "Happy Birthday Mr. President!! You’ll always be My President!!"
A second added: "Does the Constitution allow us to put him on a month-to-month as the President again until we figure this s**t out? We miss him."

Others agreed: "Happy birthday President Forever!!!!" and "We miss you Barack."
"Happy birthday President Obama. You are the best President and we sure do miss your grace and intelligence in the WH," another penned.
While another chimed in with: "Happiest birthday Mr. President! You are so missed!"
Meanwhile, someone else gushed: "Happy Birthday to the best President and human being, you and Michelle have given us so much and taught us what class, grace and decency really looks like."
And another wrote: "Happiest birthday. My forever POTUS."
