The story goes a little something like this — Michelle had been invited to a Formula 1 event in 2004, where she crossed paths with Jean at the photowall… and the rest is history.

16 years on, the couple is still very much in love, and super sweet together. 

"Celebrating 6000 days, and now even more to celebrate. To a more united, compassionate and better world,” Michelle wrote in her caption, uploading a picture of a bunch of roses and a handwritten note that 74-year-old Jean had gifted her in the first picture.

The second picture was a pic of the actress herself, while the third featured the couple chilling together in bed. And of course, the post received loads of likes and comments from netizens and fellow celebs alike, wishing Michelle and Jean a happy anniversary.

Michelle and Jean got engaged in 2005, a year after they started dating, but have yet to officially tie the knot.
