Jimmy Carter Is So In Love With His Wife, It Still Makes Him Blush
It doesn't get much sweeter than this.




Something about Rosalynn struck Carter, who immediately asked if she'd like to go see a movie with him. She agreed.

The next morning, Carter's mother asked what he did that night, since the beauty queen had been unavailable. He told her about his date with Rosalynn, which had made quite the lasting impression.

&quot My mother) said, 'What did you think of Rosalynn?'" Carter recalls. "I said, 'She's the one I'm going to marry.'"

Though it's difficult for Carter to pinpoint what it was about Rosalynn that made him fall in love so deeply, he tells Oprah that he simply knew Rosalynn was truly special.

"I knew that she was quiet, she was extremely intelligent... beautiful," he says. "There was just something about her that was irresistible."

"You're blushing!" Oprah says.

"I can't help it!" says Carter.
