To the most radiant + graceful woman I've ever laid eyes on, you have made my dreams come true in so many ways," he captioned the post. "You are my calm in the chaos + my shelter from the storm. You are elegance + rock n roll wrapped up in one body." "I was born without you, dying to find you, I'll always remind you….I love you with all my heart @avrillavigne+ the best is yet to come. Happy birthday my little icon 💚," he continued.

So glad I get to spend it with you my sunshine. 'I la la la la la la la la la love you' 💚💖."

At the time, a source told PEOPLE that they had been working in the studio "nearly every day for over two months" on Lavigne's new album, set to release later this year. In March, the couple was spotted together on a double date with Megan Fox and Machine Gun Kelly. Mod Sun also raved about her to Entertainment Tonight Canada in January. "Avril Lavigne has one of my favorite voices in music," he said in a statement, according to the outlet. "It's so strong and confident, yet filled with emotion and one-of-a-kind inflections that only her voice can do. This song holds a lot more weight than meets the eye. There's a very deep message within it." Close
