Former President Jimmy Carter and Wife Rosalynn Celebrate 73 Years of Marriage
Jimmy and Rosalynn Carter are approaching a record for the longest-married presidential couple, after celebrating their 73rd wedding anniversary Sunday.
The couple is just behind former president George H. W. Bush and his wife Barbara, who were married 73 years and 111 days at the time of the former first lady’s death in 2018.
In celebration of the Carters’ anniversary, the Jimmy Carter Presidential Library and Carter Center shared black-and-white portraits of Jimmy, 94, and Rosalynn, 91, to honor their love story.
Carter was on break from the Naval Academy in the 1940s when he first asked Rosalynn on a date to the movies. By the next morning, he knew she would someday be his wife, he told the Washington Post.

Lynn Rosenman and Merrick Garland married in 1987. Their union made the New York Times because of her! Lynn's grandfather was Samuel Rosenman, who served as a New York State Supreme Court justice and as a counsel to Presidents Franklin D. Roosevelt and Harry Truman. He died in 1973, but his legacy lives on. Lynn is a graduate of Harvard University and the Sloan School of Management at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, where she earned a master’s degree in operations management. When Lynn and Merrick married, she was working as the staff assistant to the vice president in charge of operations for the Melpar division of E-Systems, Inc., a defense electronics contractor in Falls Church, Virginia. Both their daughters are Yale graduates. The five-bedroom home in Bethesda the Garlands purchased in 1999 for $990,000 has been a terrific investment, today reported to be worth more than $2 million.
