The mother of four wrote above the photo: ‘Aww pups.’

She also shared a clip of her and John, dressed in a fancy dinner party, admiring his good looks. She added a selfie of them and wrote: ‘Hi best friend.’

“Congratulations to you both. May you have many more wonderful years together. You are indeed blessed,” wrote one.

Another joined in the conversation: ‘Congratulations on your anniversary, a great couple. Great parents and a beautiful family. Here’s to many more years.’

Teigen previously spoke candidly about the moment she first met John in 2006 at age 20.

“We shot the music video and we were together for like 12 hours,” she recalled on The Wendy Williams Show.

“We spent the whole day together, me in my underwear and him in a full suit. I went to say goodbye to him at his hotel, but we didn’t say goodbye that night.”

‘I wrote this song to express how I felt towards the woman I love, when we were about to spend a lifetime together.

“But often the best songs are able to express something in a way that is both personal and universal. I am grateful to know that loved ones around the world have connected with this song and made it their own,” he concluded.
