Graca Machel is the only woman in history to first lady in two countries.
The 74 years old Mozambican woman first got married in 1975 to the President of Mozambique, Samora Machel.
Graca’s husband, Samora Machel died in a plane crash around South Africa border in 1986.
Graca got married to the Former South African President, Nelson Mandela and spend 15 years together as couples.
The wedding between Graca and Mandela took place on Mandela’s 80th birthday, July 18, 1998.
This made her the only woman in the world to be the first lady of two different countries.
Graca once said: “It’s not two leaders who fell in love with me, but two real people. I feel privileged that I have shared my life with two such exceptional men.”
Graca
did not fall for the firm of her lover but she saw the real man in
them. She has broke the records with the only woman on earth to marry
two Presidents.
