"Such a beautiful picture. We all love you, Duane."
Another user sweetly wrote, "Nice pic! It's good to see you happy and enjoying life! ??" while many others also left their well-wishes.
Bonnie was born on December 16, 1998, and she is one of Duane's biological children with his late wife, Beth Chapman, who passed away last year after a long fight with cancer.
He also added that Beth had been the strict parent between them, and he knew he would have to fill that role with their children.
The couple also birthed a son, Gary Chapman, on February 7, 2001. Before she met Duane, Beth was already a mother to daughter, Cecily Barmore-Chapman, whom she welcomed in 1993 and was eventually adopted by Duane.
Beth was also the mother of Dominic Davis, who was born when she was only a teenager. Although the duo was estranged for a while, Duane helped his wife track Davis down and mediated a reconciliation between them.
Before Beth's passing, she had established a close relationship with her children and had even paid a sweet tribute to Cecily, who turned 26 a few days before Beth died.
Sharing an adorable photo of Cecily, Beth gushed over her daughter while adding, "Your[sic] are loved beyond words Cecily savannah you stay sweet {or you'll answer to yo mama }"
In addition to his kids with Beth, Duane is also father to nine other children whom he welcomed from prior relationships. Duane reportedly revealed that he and the kids were struggling to come to terms with their loss following his wife's death.
He also added that Beth had been the strict parent between them, and he knew he would have to fill that role with their children who still lived at home with him. According to him, he never wanted to punish the kids, and he was not looking forward to being a disciplinarian.
Duane and Beth tied the knot in 2006, and they are most famous for their reality show, "Dog the Bounty Hunter," which ran from 2004 to 2012 and highlighted the adventures of their bounty hunting business.
