Johnson has nearly four million followers on Instagram, so there were a lot of comments on his heartfelt post.

Johnson wrote: “Happy 35th anniversary to my forever love, Cookie. 35 years of you choosing me, building with me, and holding this family together with a grace I’ll never take for granted. You’ve been my partner in every real sense of the word…through the years that made the highlight reels and the ones that didn’t. “Many women do noble things, but you surpass them all.” (Proverbs 31:29) That’s you, in every season my love. I love you more today than the day I put your ring on your finger. Here’s to many more years of loving you ❤️”
