She concluded by expressing love for Nelson and Eddy while wishing them a happy birthday. The sweet post garnered several attention from fans and followers who quickly took to the comments section to leave their best wishes.

Dion’s heartfelt post comes only a few days after she shared a rare photo of herself with the boy in honor of Spirit Day, a campaign that started in 2010 to take a stand against LGBTQ bullying.
