Michael J. Fox is paying tribute to his longtime love and wife Tracy Pollan on her 64th birthday.
The retired actor, 63, showed off his romantic side when he took to his Instagram page to share his loving and poetic message on Saturday, June 22.
'In every beautiful way, it's beautiful Tracy's beautiful day,' the former Family Ties star captioned his post.
'I love you and today will be magnificent. Always forever your Mike with so-much love. Happy birthday. It's gonna be an epic day.'
For the cover photo, Fox shared a black-and-white photo of his wife of 35 years all glammed up.

The second image was a sweet photo of the couple posing with their arms wrapped around one another during a recent beach trip.
The couple first met back in 1985 when Pollan was cast as Ellen, the love interest of Fox's character Alex P. Keaton, on the hit NBC sitcom Family Ties.
However, they didn't start dating until two years later, in 1987, when they reunited for the film adaptation of Jay McInerney's novel Bright Lights, Big City.
They ultimately were married in July 1988, at West Mountain Inn in Arlington, Vermont after less than two years together.
The couple are parents to four children: son Sam, 35, twin daughters Aquinnah and Schuyler, 29, and youngest daughter Esmé, 22.
While the couple have shared their lives for more than 35 years and counting, Pollan previously admitted she didn't have a stellar first impression of Fox.
'I think I thought he was kind of full of himself,' Pollan recalled during an appearance on Inside The Actors Studio, as reported by Parade.
After she got to know him a little better, however, sparks flew.

'We started to work together, and I got a completely different impression and how completely opposite from that he was—just funny and so smart, and just all of these other things came through those first two weeks we worked together,' she explained.
Life changed for the couple in a dramatic way when in 1991 Fox (born Michael Andrew Fox) was diagnosed with Parkinson's disease.
He did not share his diagnosis publicly until 1998.
'One of the things I'll always love Tracy for is that at that moment, she didn't blink,' Fox recalled. 'She's there in the front lines with me every single day. She never pretends to know as much as I know.
'And the other thing Tracy does is, if there's something funny, let's get to the funny. We'll deal with the tragic later.'
Pollan has supported Fox every step of the way, leading to the launch of his Michael J. Fox Foundation in 2000 to help fund Parkinson's disease research in the effort to find a cure.
More recently, the couple shared in the making and release of the Apple TV+ film, Still: A Michael J. Fox Story (2023), which won the award for Best Documentary Film at the National Board Of Review Gala, as well as earning seven nominations at the 75th Primetime Emmy Awards.
She also stepped out to support him at The Michael J. Fox Foundation's A Country Thing Happened On The Way To Cure Parkinson's events over the years.

Fox and Pollan, who have one of the most enduring romances in Hollywood, are often asked how they keep their marriage strong over the years and decades.
'It's interesting, being married for 35 years,' Fox shared. 'Yeah. I mean, the joke is you say I've been married 35 years, and it's [been] the best 35 years of my life so think about that one for a second.'
He added, 'It's great having a partner and having someone that knows you in a [certain] way when everyone in the world thinks they know you. [Only] one person actually knows you.'
