On Sunday, June 14, the rapper, 54, shared a throwback Instagram video of himself gifting Broadus, also known as Boss Lady, with three rings at her 50th birthday party last November, per Complex.
"I presented you with three rings," Snoop said to his wife as he held her hand in the clip. "The first ring is when you became my girlfriend and that meant the world to me, boo, because in case people don't know, you the only girlfriend I ever had in my whole life."
PEOPLE previously reported that the couple first met during their teenage years at Beach Polytechnic High School in California.

"The second ring represents when you became my wife," Snoop continued in the throwback clip. "That was the joy of my life because we had two babies and eventually we went and made another one, a beautiful daughter."
"We renewed our vows and we did all the things that we was supposed to do to stay down as a family, as a husband and as a wife," he added.
The couple —who share sons Cordé, 31, Cordell, 29, and 26-year-old daughter Cori, as well as several grandchildren — said "I do" at the Ritz-Carlton Hotel in Marina del Rey, California on June 14, 1997.
Snoop and Broadus then renewed their vows in front of 200 loved ones at singer Charlie Wilson's ranch in 2008.
In the throwback video, Snoop went on to say that the "last ring right here is to represent the love of my life."

"Boss Lady, as you enter the fifth floor, enjoy, live it up, have fun, spend money, and be a great wife, a great mother, a great grandmother, a great daughter, a great sister, a great auntie, and a great friend," he said at the time. "Grow into the person that your grandmother was."

They also marked their 27th wedding anniversary the year before with photos of themselves coordinating in pink-and-white sweatsuits.
Speaking to PEOPLE in 2024, Snoop said his wife "understands" him.
"She's a great mother, a tremendous grandmother, an excellent wife and a great friend," he continued of his partner. "She knows how to push all of my buttons to make me act a motherf------ fool or to make me act cool, and I love it."
"Over the years she's grown with me to know what I do and how I do it and to give me the space to do it," Snoop added. "The things that she helped me with is patience, understanding what family is, making time for family and not making excuses."
In addition to his three children with Broadus, Snoop is also father to son Julian, 27, whom he shares with Laurie Helmond.
