Like many couples, Jimmy and Rosalynn Carter have spent a lot more time together during the pandemic.

That time has only helped bring the former president and first lady closer together, the two told ABC News' Steve Osunsami during an interview in their hometown of Plains, Georgia, last week ahead of their 75th wedding anniversary.

"We have hardly left our house," Jimmy Carter, the 39th president, said. "Before that we had not been together all that much -- ordinary family travel and so forth."

"It was just Jimmy and me," Rosalynn Carter said. "And it was really wonderful."

Lasted way longer than the politics. Such a good man.

4. Was just watching an interview with them. Must admit to having some tears. What could have been!

It is just frustrating and appalling to think the White House has housed the Carters and the Trumps. I never imagined there would be such an obvious disparity.
