The former First Lady, Michelle Obama, pays tribute to former president, Barack Obama, for this Father’s Day.
She has shared on her social media platforms, honoring her husband and her father for this holiday.
The caption says, “Happy #FathersDay to all the dads out there — especially the one and only @BarackObama! Our daughters couldn’t have asked for a better role model. We’re so luck to have you in our lives”.
The Obamas, including their daughters, are used to praising each other in public on many occasions. The former president, Barack Obama, had commented in an interview that happened earlier in May that he could “not be prouder” of his daughters.
Obama comments in the interview with James Cordon that his daughters have “turned in to exceptional young women.point 207 |
I could not be prouder of them, not because they’re smart and accomplished, but they’re just kind people.point 100 | They don’t have an attitude, that was what me and Michelle were worried about the most and I write about this in the book, when I talked about running, are we going to end up with weird kids?”point 267 | 1
He even adds that Michelle and his mother-in-law were good at disciplining their children in order for them to grow up well. They would tell his daughters to make their own beds and wake themselves up.
Michelle also made a post to her own father, Fraser Robinson III, who had passed away back in 1991.point 356 |
