Social media users were quick to gush over the wholesome moment, with many describing the action as "sweet" and "refreshing."

"I love how President Joe Biden, the busiest man in America, still makes the time for little gestures to show his wife how much he loves and appreciates her," one woman noted.

Certainly, Biden has never been shy about his affection for his wife of 44 years.

"I adore her," he told CBS Sunday Morning in August last year. "I'm gonna sound so stupid – I was saying the other day, when she comes down the steps and I look at her, my heart still skips a beat."

Last year, the president gushed about his lovely wife on their wedding anniversary writing on Instagram, "...I'm forever grateful you agreed to spend the rest of your life with me. I love you, Jilly!"
