The love remains strong between these two and they don’t shy away from proving it. Barrack Obama is probably the biggest fan of grand gestures from what we have observed over the years. This year is no different as he goes all out for his boo.

Former US President Barack Obama has posted a surprise video tribute to his wife Michelle. As part of the US Mother’s Day celebrations, Obama shared the video on his Instagram.

“I just surprised @MichelleObama with this video message at the final event of her book tour. Happy Mother’s Day to the love of my life,” Obama said.

“I just wanted to make sure on Mother’s Day that you knew how much I loved you,” the video said.

“I could not be a luckier man to be married to you,” he went on, before revealing the message had been shown to Michelle on the final day of her book tour.

He also went on to praise her as being a role model to follow “every single day.”

He revealed that he’d had doubts that Michelle would agree to his wedding proposal but said “I just know I wanted to go there with you.”

He also said that she inspired him every day, thanks to her “honesty, fearlessness and insight to be a great advocate for people who needed advocacy, help inspire people to find their own voices”.

“So I’m pretty proud of you, girl,” he ended.

Mr Obama posted on Facebook a picture of Michelle with their daughters Malia and Sasha when they visited the Great Wall of China. In the post he wrote: ”Happy Mother’s Day to the most caring, brilliant, funny, and grounded woman I know. A perfect role model not just for our daughters, but so many others.”

Michelle Obama also marked the holiday by paying homage to her mother, Marian Robinson, with a post on Twitter.

The message said: “From an early age, my mom saw that I had a flame inside me and she never tempered it.

“Mom, thank you for kindling that fire within me, and for your example as a mother and a grandmother to our girls.

“We would never be who we are today without you.”

“Growing up, every time I’d come home from school with a story to share, my mother was there with a snack and a listening ear to hear about what was on my mind.

“When I came home with a tale about my disastrous second-grade classroom, she marched into the school to figure out what was going on.

“And as I grew older, including up through my years as First Lady, she was always there for me as a guiding light through whatever fog was clouding my path.

“She’s always listened more than she lectured, observed more than she demonstrated.

Growing up, every time I’d come home from school with a story to share, my mother was there with a snack and a listening ear to hear about what was on my mind. When I came home with a tale about my disastrous second-grade classroom, she marched into the school to figure out what was going on. And as I grew older, including up through my years as First Lady, she was always there for me as a guiding light through whatever fog was clouding my path. She’s always listened more than she lectured; observed more than she demonstrated. In doing so, she allowed me to think for myself and develop my own voice. From an early age, she saw that I had a flame inside me, and she never tempered it. She made sure that I could keep it lit. Mom, thank you for kindling that fire within me, and for your example as a mother and a grandmother to our girls. We would never be who we are today without you. #HappyMothersDay, Mom. Love you. ❤️
