Gloria said she loved every moment of their togetherness.

Sharing the post on Instagram, accompanied by a video, on Friday,  Gloria Estefan wrote: "Babe, I can’t believe 45 years have passed since we said 'I do' and I’ve loved every moment we’ve spent together! Te quiero mucho, mi morito, no puedo creer lo rápido que pasa el tiempo y he disfrutado cada segundo que hemos pasado juntos."

"Here’s to the coming years of happiness! Salud para los años que nos quedan!" she said.

The pair — who are parents to son Nayib and daughter Emily — first met while playing music with mutual friends during the spring after Gloria graduated from high school, reports People.

The couple said they maintained a platonic relationship.

"We had chemistry for sure. But he had an older girlfriend, and he was my boss," Gloria told People in March 2017.

Things quickly turned romantic for the pair when Emilio asked Gloria to go see Young Frankenstein for their first date.

She told People that she was sold by the end of the evening, explaining, "I knew I was going to marry this man."

They married on September 2.
