Arnold Schwarzenegger turned 77 on Tuesday and his eldest son, Patrick, shared a very saucy message for his father.
The Terminator star, who is in a long-running romance with Heather Milligan, 49, was praised by Patrick, 30, who shared a cute throwback snap of the couple on Instagram.
In the snap, captioned “Happy Birthday Dad,” Patrick, who appeared to be around seven years old, posed with his father in a gold photo frame.
She also shared a fun snap of the actor posing in a T-shirt with her image printed on it alongside the hilarious caption: “I love you almost as much as you love yourself!”
Arnold shares Patrick, Katherine, 34, Christina, 31, and Christopher, 26, with ex-wife Maria Shriver.
Arnold Schwarzenegger turned 77 on Tuesday and his eldest son, Patrick, shared a very saucy message for his father.
He is also the father of a son, Joseph Baena, 26, from his romance with former housekeeper Mildred Baena.
Last month, Arnold paid tribute to his former rival Sylvester Stallone as he celebrated his 78th birthday.
The Rocky star, who recently wished his “amazing daughter” Sistine a happy 26th birthday late last month, was called a “champion” by the Terminator actor, 76, in a post uploaded to his main Instagram page.
Alongside three images of the couple taken over the years, Arnold wrote: “Happy birthday my friend @officialslystallone.”
“You are a champion and a legend. You inspire me and billions of people around the world,” he concluded.
One image showed the two standing side by side as they prepared to carve pumpkins that were placed in front of them.
A second snap of the two stars was taken years earlier while both were wearing Planet Hollywood T-shirts.
She also included an additional throwback photo in which they posed for an outdoor photo and were joined by other people.
She also shared a fun snap of the actor posing in a T-shirt with her image printed on it alongside the hilarious caption: “I love you almost as much as you love yourself!”

Arnold and Sylvester were involved in a years-long rivalry that later merged, apparently beginning in 1977 when they were sitting at the same table at the 34th Golden Globe Awards.
Stallone claimed Schwarzenegger had laughed when Rocky lost in some categories during the ceremony, but when the film won Best Dramatic Film, he threw a bouquet of flowers to the star.
Arnold later revealed that he was “the one who started all this… by opening his mouth, saying stupid things and being competitive.”
However, decades later, the two remain close friends and Arnold says he admires Stallone’s “dedication and passion.” The Rocky star also said the Predator actor has a “big heart.”
But earlier this year in April, the two sat down for a joint interview to reflect on the rivalry that has since ended for TMZ Presents: Arnold & Sly: Rivals, Friends, Icons, per People.
Last month, Arnold paid tribute to his former rival Sylvester Stallone as he celebrated his 78th birthday.
At one point, Arnold attributed his success in the industry to Sylvester, explaining, “There’s no two ways about it: He was very helpful in my career because I had something I could pursue.”
Stallone added that when Schwarzenegger arrived, “I finally thought I had something to motivate me. Because he is, dare I say it, competition, a threat, whatever you want to call it.”
“As soon as I saw him, it was like boom, two alphas. If we walked into a party, we’d stare at each other for a few seconds and then say, ‘I’ve got to get that guy. He hasn’t done anything wrong, but he’s going to do it.'”
