The 62-year-old actress has paid a glowing tribute to her husband David, 64, as the couple celebrate an impressive 27 years since they tied the knot.

She wrote on Instagram alongside several throwback photos of the pair: "My one and only for 27 years. Happy Anniversary to my love (sic)”

The couple tied the knot in 1993 and have 26-year-old son John and 27-year-old adopted daughter Claudia together, whose adoption process was begun by Michelle before she met David.

Speaking about adopting Claudia, Michelle said in 2007: "When she came, he and I had only been together for about two months. So we had this child with us right away, and … I really got to see him in a situation that certainly would separate the boys from the men. Obviously, he really rose to the occasion."

The ‘Maleficent: Mistress of Evil’ actress also said the couple’s instant family ultimately helped their relationship grow.

She added: "We both got to see each other as parents before we progressed in our relationship together, and in a strange way, it took the pressure off us, as a couple. We had something else to focus on. It was sort of perfectly timed.

"I mean, it’s a real testament to the kind of person he is, but also to the fact that sometimes the traditional way of doing things isn’t always the best way.”

Although the ‘Scarface’ star hailed her husband as her “only” love, she was previously married to Peter Horton from 1981 until 1988.
