She also shared her birthday post from last year — a sweet throwback pic of the couple — on her Instagram Stories.
“❤️November 9, 2006❤️18 years ago, we celebrated our first birthday together,” the post reads. “I will never forget the feeling I had in my heart when you told me we had the same birthday!… You were meant for me! I Love sharing my birthday with You, but more importantly, I Love sharing Life with You! Happy Birthday, My Love! To Us! ❤️.”
