ATLANTA, GEORGIA: The love story of former President Jimmy Carter and former First Lady Rosalynn Carter is undoubtedly one of the most charming and lasting romances of our time.

Their marriage, spanning almost eight decades, was known for the couple's deep affection and commitment to each other.

Even after more than 77 years together, until Mrs Carter's passing on Sunday, November 19, they never shied away from expressing their love openly.

Jimmy and Rosalynn Carter, deeply in love, were frequently captured on camera sharing affectionate moments and kisses at various sporting events, including football, basketball, and baseball games.

As proud natives of Georgia, the Carters were avid fans of Atlanta's local teams, namely the Atlanta Braves for baseball and the Atlanta Hawks for basketball.

As the longest-married presidential couple in history, their attendance at these games was not just a testament to their steadfast support for their favorite teams, but also an opportunity for them to engage in endearing displays of intimacy, much to the delight of their admirers.

'Rosalynn was my equal partner in everything I ever accomplished'

Jimmy Carter, who celebrated his 99th birthday in October, wrote a heartfelt tribute on the passing of his wife. In the statement through the Carter Center, the 39th American President wrote, “Rosalynn was my equal partner in everything I ever accomplished.”

He continued, “She gave me wise guidance and encouragement when I needed it. As long as Rosalynn was in the world, I always knew somebody loved and supported me.”
