Chris Hemsworth has shared a sweet post dedicated to his wife Elsa Pataky on her 49th birthday.
The Aussie star, 41, took to Instagram on Saturday to wish the Spanish actress a happy birthday as they celebrated her special day together.
'Happy birthday @elsapataky! Thank you for being an incredible human and each year continuing to allow me to eat the vast majority of the cake,' he captioned the post, which has received over one million likes.
One snap showed the actress wearing a giant smile on her face as she sat alongside her husband with a giant chocolate cake in front of them.

Rumours have recently circulated about the couple after they spent several weeks apart due to work commitments.
Elsa had been in her native Spain, filming her new TV series Matices, while Chris had been travelling, even attending the final day of Wimbledon without his wife.
However, on Thursday, they reunited in London at the premiere of Chris' new National Geographic series, Limitless: Live Better Now, with their twin sons, Tristan and Sasha, 11.
Sporting summer tans, the genetically-blessed duo glowed as they cuddled up, clearly happy to be back in each other's arms.
The event was a family affair, with all of Chris' family in attendance.
His father Craig and mother Leonie were present, as well as his brother Liam and his girlfriend Gabriella Brooks.
For the glitzy evening, Chris, who stars in the show exploring how humans 'can live better for longer', looked handsome in a navy two-piece suit.
He layered his tailored two-piece over a crisp white T-shirt and an unbuttoned dark blue shirt.
Meanwhile, Elsa put on a leggy display as she slipped into a sparkly sheer dress which was layered over a strappy white dress.
She added inches to her toned physique as she wore a pair of strappy silver heels and slicked her blonde tresses back into an up-do.
Chris and Elsa tied the knot during the Christmas holidays in 2010.
The Hemsworths have made Byron Bay their home in recent years, after relocating from Los Angeles to Australia nine years ago.

EXCLUSIVE Hollywood heartthrob goes incognito as he reveals shock new look at Maroubra Beach in Sydney

A major US actor looked completely unrecognisable as he filmed scenes for his new movie in Sydney over the weekend. Noah Centineo looked very different as he donned long blonde hair while filming the new Street Fighter film at Maroubra Beach. The Gen Z heartthrob, 28, is set to play the role of Ken Masters alongside other major stars including rapper 50 Cent. He was dressed in a white singlet and denim pants as he got into character. Noah had bright yellow sunglasses on his locks as he chatted with the crew before filming scenes for the upcoming movie.

It comes after Noah recently sparked romance rumours with Zoe Kravitz, 36, after they left a party together in West Hollywood back in March. The Big Little Lies star and actor, best known for his starring role in To All the Boys I've Loved Before, were seen exiting the same small bar/club around 2:20 a.m. According to eyewitnesses, the rumoured couple did leave in the same car. The pair's sighting came on the same day her ex-fiancé Channing Tatum, 44, went public with his new romance with Australian model Inka Williams at a pre-Oscars party in Los Angeles, hosted by Creative Artists Agency (CAA). Kravitz and Centineo refrained from engaging in any PDA and it is unknown if their relationship is romantic or platonic. The month prior the two were also seen hanging out in New York City. Kravitz and Tatum were romantically involved for three years and engaged for one, before they called off the wedding at the end of October. The split was a particular shock for the couple, as they had not only gotten engaged, but Channing had been spotted with fresh ink of Zoë's initials on the back of his hand in September. Noah shot to fame portraying Peter Kavinsky in the To All the Boys I've Loved Before film series, establishing himself as a teen heartthrob. He has also starred in the The Recruit, playing a CIA lawyer entangled in a dangerous world. Noah's most recent roles include Black Adam and Warfare. The actor has also appeared in Charlie Angles, The Fosters and Sierra Burgess Is A Loser.

Married At First Sight 2026's sauciest bride risks major wardrobe malfunction as she marries Aussie reality star in beach ceremony

Married At First Sight has started filming across Sydney - and it seems we've found the sauciest bride of the 2026 season. Gia Fleur was exclusively pictured by Daily Mail Australia on Monday wearing a very racy wedding ensemble as she married Aussie reality star Scott McCristal in a romantic beach ceremony. The bride put on a busty display in a mermaid tail dress, which tightly hugged her figure as she wed the Million Dollar Island alum on Maroubra Beach. The frock boasted long sleeves, an accentuated waist and a high slit up the leg, which saw Gia risk a major wardrobe malfunction as she walked down the aisle. However, it was the frilly, bow-emblazoned garter wrapped around her left leg that raised eyebrows. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. Gia finished off the look by sweeping up her golden locks into a bun and wore a jewel-encrusted tiara. Gia's groom was smitten as she came down the aisle. The couple were all smiles as they wed in front of a picturesque beach scene. Scott could be seen leaning back in fits of laughter after one point as they held hands at the altar. The new couple exchanged rings and then a kiss as they said 'I do' for MAFS fans across the globe. Later on, Scott and Gia enjoyed a loved-up photo shoot on the beach, where they could be seen striking a variety of poses. One picture saw the couple in a passionate embrace, with Gia's garter-laden leg lifted up by her husband. Later, Scott carried his new bride across the beach. While the newest season of MAFS has kicked off with a bang, according to reports, it nearly didn't happen. Daily Mail Australia previously revealed the 2026 season almost didn't make it to air after last-minute cast dropouts forced producers to scramble behind the scenes. 'They had multiple people pull out and had to move quickly to fill those spots,' one well-placed source revealed. But the end result? A bold, diverse cast of professionals, creatives, and big personalities - with producers tipping this to be one of the 'most explosive seasons yet.' 'Some couples are hitting it off immediately, others are absolute mismatches - the drama is already building,' one insider said.

My daughter inspired me to launch a baby skincare brand

Casyo Johnson remembers his first lesson in business, aged 13, at his school in south London. Stanley Technical High School, as it was known then, didn't have an activities room to occupy the pupils during breaks. It also didn't have any money. So Johnson, now better known as Krept from the rap duo Krept and Konan, offered to raise the cash himself. He signed up his fellow pupils to give him 20p a day. 'I had a table with names, payment dates,' he recalls of the tight operation. After three weeks he handed over enough cash to pay for the facility. 'They took the money and didn't do anything,' he says. It was a tough lesson for a 13-year-old and it understandably still rankles. Instead of ping-pong, Johnson focused on surviving the gang violence around him and on his music, teaming up with his school friend Karl Wilson, alias Konan, in 2008. Their breakthrough came in 2013 when their independently produced album Young Kingz took off. It holds a Guinness record as the highest-charting UK album by an unsigned act. Johnson, now 35 and a father of one, still performs regularly. Krept and Konan launched a new album, Young Kingz II, in February this year and the pair are playing at summer festivals across Europe. He has also been able to put the business lessons from that early experience in school to good use. In 2020, during the Covid lockdowns, Johnson and his partner at the time, Sasha Ellese Gilbert, developed a natural skincare product for their baby daughter Nala. Gilbert, in particular, bridled at the toxicity of some of the common ingredients in mainstream toiletries. She used ingredient rating apps such as Think Dirty and Yuka and did not like what she found. 'When you scan these products you see how clean they are,' Johnson says. They couldn't find any brand with a full range of excellent ratings. 'It was a lightbulb moment. We thought, 'Why don't we do it?'' Johnson discovered a world of natural alternatives and the pair created recipes that they took to a manufacturer with a lab where they could be developed and tested properly. • Meet the UK's fastest-growing companies in 2025 The next step was to decide on pricing. Johnson wanted to position the range at the affordable end of the market so he sought out retailers to be a launch partner, starting with Boots. Such a big brand would also help reassure customers, typically young mothers. After all, what does a musician from south London know about producing safe toiletries for babies? Helped by his high profile, as well as his commitment to the project, a deal was struck and the brand, Nala's Baby, was launched in June 2022. Roll forward three years and Nala's Baby is a profitable £5.5 million turnover business, stocked in supermarkets like Tesco, Morrisons and Sainsbury's, as well as over 1,000 Boots stores. It is also sold on Amazon and through its own website. As Krept, Johnson has just returned from playing at the Wireless festival and is off to another in Paris after we talk. In Nala's Baby, he sees a venture that can provide a legacy for his daughter in the way that music cannot. 'In music, I know that I have to be the one writing music, going on tour. But what would I be able to pass down to my daughter? In music, you have to be the entertainer at all times. It is not something you can let stand on its own two feet without you being there. So long term, I always knew I wanted to get into business.' Johnson and Wilson had tried opening a bar and restaurant in Croydon first, called Crepes & Cones, but it closed as the first Covid lockdown hit. While eating out can be taken away, people will always have babies and babies will need cleaning, he reasoned. 'You always need to wash, regardless of what happens.' Getting Nala's Baby off the ground was not easy and Johnson credits the consultant Shaz Saleem for supporting the initial phase. 'We were winging it,' he admits. Johnson has a degree in accounting and finance so could cope with the numbers, but those numbers got quite big, quite quickly. It took 18 months to develop the first eight products and the co-founders wanted to launch with an eye-catching roster of 'approved by' credentials, ranging from its efficacy on the skin to being safe for babies and suitable for vegans. The tests themselves were eye-wateringly expensive. 'I wanted to tick every single box,' Johnson says. Before long they had invested £250,000. This was enough to give them their break with Boots, but now Johnson needed more cash to begin production. The cost of the indicative orders from Boots and minimum production levels required from the manufacturer were sobering. So Johnson pitched to friends and family, including Konan and the likes of Anthony Joshua, the former heavyweight world champion. They backed him and he sold a stake, raising £1.5 million. 'There is a lot of pressure because you are taking money from people you know to invest in your dream,' he says. 'But I genuinely thought it was going to work.' Some friends were not 100 per cent convinced, though. 'Some did say this is a bit risky, man. You are going into baby skincare. This is crazy.' He admits he didn't see the baby skincare entrepreneur in him before it happened. 'I never, never saw it coming, for me to be doing this. But my life went down that road when I had a daughter. It was never planned but it felt right at the time. I became a father and so I understood the need for [Nala's Baby] even more, just being a dad, saying 'I would want this for my daughter'.' Knowing he had six months before the launch in Boots, Johnson plotted out what he would do each day to build awareness on his social media: he has more than 690,000 followers across Instagram and TikTok. The effort worked. 'I wanted it to be a frenzy and that is literally what happened,' he recalls. Nala's Baby sold out online within ten minutes and many of the 400 Boots stores saw their shelves cleared. Some products started popping up on eBay, being offered at well above the retail price. Feedback from customers with skin issues was positive and by 2023 it won the Mother & Baby best baby skincare range award, as voted for by parents, beating the previous winner and market leader Childs Farm. 'It was a key moment for us,' Johnson recalls, as there were supermarket buyers in the room. Boots took its new range, called Vanilla Cloud, to more than 1,000 stores and the supermarkets followed. Nala's Baby now claims to have an 8 per cent share of the market. As the business became a more serious business venture, Johnson also used his contacts for advice, including his friend Franklin Asante, who is head of entrepreneurs at the private bank Coutts. Asante sat Johnson next to Saeb Eigner, former chairman of the Dubai Financial Services Authority, at a dinner. The two chatted and after Johnson had completed some homework to prove he was serious, Eigner introduced him to Gordon McCallum, the former chief executive of Sir Richard Branson's Virgin Group. He in turn introduced Johnson to Anna James, a former marketing director at Mothercare and Carphone Warehouse, who became Nala's chief operating officer. James recommended someone she had worked with, Ben Newnum, who joined as Nala's managing director in July 2023. 'He lives, eats and breathes Nala's Baby,' says Johnson, full of admiration for Newnum's attitude and work ethic. The 'introducers' have all invested in Nala's Baby, sensing a good thing. The business is now a team of eight, soon to be ten, all working out of a small office on the fourth floor of a building next to Paddington station in London. The location suits the team more than Johnson, who lives in Essex and has a 90-minute commute. Next up is the launch of a natural multi-purpose sanitiser 'that is effective as bleach but is not harmful'. Then next year is international expansion, either in Europe or the US. 'I do want it to be a global brand,' Johnson says. 'We are gearing up for 2026 to go international.'
