Sarah Michelle Gellar gave fans a rare peek into her playful marriage with Freddie Prinze Jr. after sharing a flirty set of snapshots to Instagram on Sunday, March 8. The Buffy the Vampire Slayer actress, 48, posted the photos in honor of her husband’s milestone 50th birthday, showing the longtime Hollywood couple goofing around for the camera.
The actress captioned the sweet tribute, “Happy Milestone Bday @realfreddieprinze Age is simply the number of years the world has gotten to enjoy you. And no one has enjoyed you, more than me.”
In the photos, Gellar stunned in a shimmering gold sequin dress that caught the light from every angle. Her long blonde hair was styled in loose waves that fell over her shoulders, while soft glam makeup highlighted her glowing complexion. Standing beside her, Prinze kept things casual in a neutral beige T-shirt layered under a lightweight tan cardigan.

The first snap captured the pair pulling exaggerated faces for the camera, while another showed Gellar leaning in for a playful kiss on her husband’s cheek as he grinned widely. The cozy photo booth-style images gave fans a glimpse at the couple’s easy chemistry more than two decades after they first met on the set of the 1997 horror film I Know What You Did Last Summer.
Gellar and Prinze tied the knot in 2002 and share two children together. Over the years, the pair have largely kept their relationship out of the spotlight, making the affectionate post a rare treat for followers.
