Sarah Ferguson shared a relaxed photo of her ex-husband Prince Andrew to mark his 60th birthday.
The Duke of York's milestone celebrations have been over-shadowed by the on-going scandal surrounding his friendship with paedophile Jeffrey Epstein, however Fergie still wanted to wish him a happy day.
She posted a new photo of the father of her children on her Instagram page, along with a short caption.
The black and white photo shows Andrew relaxing on a sofa with two dogs, while smiling and looking out of the window.
Sarah is known for posting very open and emotional posts on her Instagram page, including a number of gushing messages about both of her daughters' engagements.
Despite splitting in 1996, Andrew and Fergie have remained good friends and still live together at Royal Lodge.
The Queen's son was due to mark the landmark occasion with a big party, similar to the one the Queen hosted for Prince Charles's 60th in 2008, however plans were scrapped amid the Epstein scandal.
Instead, they will sit down for a family dinner at Royal Lodge this evening.
About 12 people are due to attend. A group of Andrew's friends are also said to be planning a celebration.
There were reports that several of the invited guests shunned the dinner party, forcing loyal ex-wife Sarah Ferguson to desperately try to make up the numbers.
According to MailOnline a number of friends have become "unavailable", resulting in Fergie's assistant looking for replacements.
"Nothing quite illustrates the Duke of York's dizzying fall from grace than the manner in which a number of his friends — or those he thought of as friends — have shunned the chance to join him tomorrow on his 60th birthday," the Mail's Sebastian Shakespeare writes.
The Royal Family's official Instagram account joined Sarah in publicly wishing Andrew a happy birthday.
It posted a birthday message to the Duke, including two photos.
The first is a black and white snap from when he was a baby and the second a recent picture showing him looking serious in a dark suit.
The caption reads: "On this day in 1960, Prince Andrew was born at Buckingham Palace, the first child born to a reigning monarch for 103 years.
"Happy Birthday to The Duke of York."
Many fans were unimpressed by the message, with some labelling it inappropriate.
