After 26,765 days of wedded bliss, Jimmy and Rosalynn Carter are now the longest-married presidential couple, the Carter Center has announced.

The pair surpassed the previous record set by the late George H.W. Bush and Barbara Bush, CNN reported.

The website noted that Rosalynn recounts in her memoir, “First Lady from Plains,” that at first, she turned the future president down when he proposed.

She had promised her late father that she would wait to marry until after she finished college.

When they married in 1945, Jimmy was 21 and Rosalynn was 18.

They now have four children and more than 20 grandchildren.
