She wrote, “So excited to be celebrating my first Mother’s Day with my little angel, baby Phoenix. Being a mom is the most incredible experience I’ve ever had.

It’s a love beyond words, a feeling I never knew existed until I held my little prince in my arms.

“Seeing him grow and learn every day makes me so happy and fills my heart with so much love.”

Along with her thoughtful words, she shared a series of beautiful photos of her family taken shortly after the toddler was born.

The blonde bombshell continued, “There’s something so special about being a mom, something I never quite understood until I became one myself.” This Mother’s Day I can’t help but be grateful for this beautiful journey I’m on.

“It’s a day to celebrate the incredible women who brought us into this world, who loved us unconditionally and who shaped us into the people we are today. My mother is my greatest inspiration and the original queen of my heart. She has always been there for me through the ups and downs and taught me the true meaning of strength and love.

And Paris gave some advice “to all the moms out there,” as she said, “I want to wish you a happy Mother’s Day.”

“You are the backbone of your family, the glue that holds everything together, and the most important person in your child’s life. Cherish every moment, even the difficult ones, because that is what will shape your child into the wonderful person they are meant to be.’

Tom Brady posted an emotional tribute to his ex-wife Gisele Bundchen and his own mother, Galynn.

Brady’s post also featured Bridgette Moynahan, his ex with whom he shares son Jack.

His tribute began with, “Happy Mother’s Day to all these wonderful women who have given our family so much throughout their lives.”

In his post, Tom continued, “Thank you all for your love, compassion and kindness, and for setting such a great example for all of our little ones.

“We are all so thankful for your support and helping us all achieve our dreams. I wish all mothers in the world a special day with the people who love them most.’

Brady and Brazilian supermodel Gisele divorced last October after 13 years together. They share two children, daughter Vivienne and son Benjamin.

The split came amid widespread reports that she was unhappy with him not retiring for another season in the NFL with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

But in an interview with Vanity Fair in March, she strongly distanced herself from those suggestions.

“Listen, I always cheered for him and I would go on forever,” she said. “If there’s one person I want to be the happiest in the world, it’s him, believe me.

“I want him to perform and win. I want all his dreams to come true. That’s what I really want, from the bottom of my heart.’

Alec Baldwin, who has had a difficult year and a half after the death of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins on the set of his film Rust, shared a meaningful post.

The 65-year-old actor recorded himself sitting in a vehicle with a black leather interior.

In the clip, he appeared sporting a full and mostly white beard wearing a charcoal gray crew neck T-shirt with a few strands of his hair falling over his face.

He wrote in a caption to his 2.5 million followers: “Happy Mother’s Day to you amazing women!

The note continued, “You don’t have to have a baby to be a mother. You can be a mother to a dog, a gardener, the staff of a small business, a class of children at school, or your stepchild and grandmother to their children.”

“Women bring a powerful and unique form of caring to the world. HMD to all the women who keep the world going,’ he finished.

Alec shares seven young children with wife Hilaria Baldwin – Carmen, 9, Rafael, 7, Leonardo, 6, Romeo, 4, Eduardo and Lucia, 2, and Ilaria, born September 2022.

Baldwin also shares 27-year-old daughter Ireland, who is expecting her first child, with ex-wife Kim Basinger.
