Bill and Hillary Clinton are one of the most influential couples in America and their love story is somewhat extraordinary. They have been together for nearly 46 years and went through thick and thin in order to keep their marriage going strong.
Bill has always been interested in politics, even as a teenager. Being extremely bright and an outstanding student, he got the chance to enrol some of the most prestigious schools in the country. Following high school, Bill attended Georgetown University. Then, in 1986, he won a Rhodes Scholarship to attend Oxford University, and later on earned his law degree at Yale University.
Those who knew him well were aware of his political aspirations. Bill’s love for politics grew even stronger after a very special meeting with then-President John F Kennedy during a visit of the White House Rose Garden as a delegate to Boys Nation.
“I was about the third or fourth person in, and.. I sort of muscled my way up (to the front),” Bill once recalled of the meeting which left huge impression on him.
Hillary Clinton says while she’s not one to dole out relationship advice, her and former President Clinton’s “ability to keep talking” is one of the reasons they’re still married.
“We have carried on a conversation now for more than 50 years,” the former secretary of State said to her husband, who appeared as a guest on her iHeart podcast “You and Me Both” on Tuesday.
“Part of, I think, the real core of our relationship, our marriage, has been we started a conversation and we never stopped,” Hillary Clinton told the 42nd president.
“Through good times and hard times, through happy times and sad times — it doesn’t mean we don’t get frustrated and upset with the other because that’s human nature. But we always kept talking,” she said.
