Former US President Barack Obama and his spouse Michelle have celebrated their wedding anniversary with messages of endearment to each other.

Taking to their social media platforms as is their norm during birthdays and anniversary celebrations, they expressed their love and appreciation to each other.

Barack and Michelle Obama got married on October 3, 1992.

Obama posted a photo of him with Michelle at the Whitney Museum of American Art in New York City. They were hugging while posing in front of Alvin Ailey dance poster, smiling.

The couple kept things low-key in the photo, with Michelle wearing a matching coat and pants in a tie-dye pattern and Barack in gray slacks and a coach's jacket.

'"Happy anniversary Michelle! 32 years together and I couldn't have asked for a better partner and friend to go through life with," the former US President said.

Reposting the photo, Michelle said, "32 action-packed years with my honey! Through it all, thank you for always having my back, being by my side and finding ways to make me smile. I love you Barack Obama".

Fans on their part congratulated them for the achievement.

An X user wrote, "May your anniversary be as remarkable and filled with joy as the love story you continue to write every day. Wishing you both more years of happiness, love and adventures together. With heartfelt congratulations".

“What a beautiful tribute! Celebrating 32 action-packed years is truly special. Your love and support for each other shine through. Here’s to many more joyful moments together,” another X user commented.

The couple's first date was to Spike Lee's movie Do the Right Thing (1989). 

Barack Obama has often said they had an "opposites attract" scenario in their initial interest in each other since Michelle had stability from her two-parent home while he was "adventurous".

The couple have been blessed with two daughters, Malia, 26, and Sasha, 23.
