And the date marks yet another birthday spent with childhood sweetheart Antonela.
The pair first met when she, now 32, was just five-years-old in their home city of Rosario in Argentina.
And after all these years of knowing each other, they went public with their relationship in 2008.
She has now built up a huge following of her own, boasting 12.6million Instagram followers and working as a model.
And she has used that platform to gush over her loving husband’s big day.
She posted a picture, which already has over a million likes, of herself with her arm around Leo’s shoulder as the pair grin into the camera.
Antonela captioned the picture: “Congratulations to the love of my life. We will celebrate today, tomorrow and always ❤️ Thank you so much. I love you”.
She also added some extra snaps to her story, with Messi adorning what seems to be a trademark checked flannel shirt – featuring the phrase “love is love”.
And a third post features the pair cuddling on a boat in front of a stunning sunset.
The couple finally tied the knot in 2017, with “the wedding of the century” taking place at the plush City Centre Hotel and Casino in their hometown of Rosario in Argentina.

Stars such as Cesc Fabregas and Sergio Aguero were present, while Barcelona legends Xavi Hernandez, Carles Puyol and Samuel Eto’o were also in town for the bash.
The couple also have three children together, Thiago, seven, Mateo, four, and Ciro, two.
Messi and Antonela are no strangers to public shows of affection of late it seems, having passionately locked lips on camera for a recent music video.
