The 55-year-old actress and Hollywood veteran Michael, 80, share the same special day, and Catherine's tribute to her man certainly went down well with their fans.

She shared a black and white profile shot of her standing in the buff in the bathroom.

The brunette beauty's long legs were accentuated by a pair of heels as she gazed into a mirror.

Catherine captioned her post: “In my birthday suit! After over 25 years of sharing my birthday day with my husband, I am running out of gift ideas!

“This is gift option two, golf balls being option one… of course.”

One fan commented: "Excellent gift for your husband and your admirers, for such a beautiful image. Happy and blessed birthday, many blessings."

Another said: "Let's be fair, if Catherine looks like that NOW, every day is a birthday for Michael!

A third wrote: "Omg breathtaking. Your husband will be so happy."

The previous day Catherine shared another photo, this time of Michael planting an affectionate kiss on her earlier in their marriage.

She said: "Happy Birthday to Michael and to me!! This was us on our birthday 25 years ago! I love you with all my heart, our friend @jeanpigozzi snapped us in New York!!"

Catherine's funny golf balls comment was very fitting given their joint love of the game, which is one of the main reasons they got together back in 1998.

Two years later the couple were married and they've had many a happy round on courses around the world since.

Speaking earlier this year on US talk show The View, Michael revealed the very risqué forfeit Catherine gives him when he loses.

He explained The Mask of Zorro actress makes him "whip it out".

The Fatal Attraction actor continued: "She says, 'You've gotta whip it out.'

"Drop the trou and whip it out.

"That's the secret to a marriage."

Michael went on to say he doesn't do it any more as he's getting older.

He said: "I'm going to be 80 in September, so now I play off of ladies tees, too, so I don't have to do that anymore."

It wasn't the first time Michael has spoken out the lovers' joint appreciation for the game.

In April, he told Ross King on Lorraine that golf brought them together.

"You know, Catherine loves golf," he said. "That was actually kind of the closest we first got together.

"Things were looking good and I said, 'What do you think of golf?'

"She said, 'Oh, I love golf!', and I said, 'Oh, you do?' That's too good to be true."

He also revealed he knew Catherine was The One soon after they first met and told her: "I want to father your children."

The pair went on to welcome two kids - Carys, 21, and Dylan, 24.

Michael also has a son, Cameron, 45, from a previous marriage.

UPS AND DOWNS

Despite their many years of marriage, their love story hasn't been smooth sailing.

In 2013, the pair separated for about a year.

At the time of their split, Michael opened up to Extra TV about the separation.

"Catherine and I are fine," he said.

"The press tries to push it along a little faster. We're taking a little break.

"We talk. I think everything will be great."

After the pair reconciled, he told Ellen: "I'm crazy about her… I think every couple has their difficulties.

"The only problem is, as you well know, we're all in the public eye, and it tends to get a little more exposed than most."
