Barack Obama and Michelle Obama – Together Since 1991
In 1989, a chance encounter at a Chicago law firm sparked the beginning of Barack and Michelle Obama’s storied relationship. Despite her initial skepticism about his widespread popularity, his persistent charm won her over. Their first date, a blend of lunch, a movie, and Baskin-Robbins ice cream, marked the start of a journey together.
Their love culminated in a 1991 proposal and a 1992 wedding at Trinity United Church of Christ in Chicago. The couple welcomed their first daughter, Malia, in 1998, and Sasha followed in 2001. The Obama family entered the global spotlight in 2008 with Barack’s election as the 44th President of the United States.
