Michelle Obama talks about the warm gesture between her and George W Bush during his father's funeral
Former First Lady Michelle Obama recently talked about the warm exchange with former President George W Bush during his late father's funeral and said that she was as charmed by the gesture as their fans were. Bush Jr, during the ceremony, had handed the former first lady a mint while greeting the leaders sitting in the front row. The exchange between the duo caught everyone's eyes and soon became viral on social media.
The moment was reminiscent of the late Senator John McCain's funeral when Michelle and Bush junior were sitting together in the same row and he casually took a cough drop from his wife and passed it on to the former first lady. Reports state that Michelle was battling a cough at the time and the gesture was viewed as very sweet and made news and had people on social media gushing about their friendship.
