Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Russell Wilson gave his 5.6 million Instagram followers a look at all that he grateful for this year in a sweet Instagram post on Wednesday.
Less than 24 hours before ringing in Thanksgiving with his family, the professional athlete, 36, shared a slideshow full of sweet snaps featuring his wife, Ciara, as well as their three kids Sienna Princess, seven, Win Harrison, 4, and Amora Princess, 11 months.
His stepson Future Zahir, 10, who Ciara shares with her ex-fiancé, Future, was also in all the family photos taken at the zoo and a Steelers game.
‘So much to be thankful for,’ Wilson captioned the post, which received more than 102,797 likes in less than 12 hours. ‘Happy Thanksgiving!! @Ciara.’
The father-of-three also included a loved-up photo of just himself and Ciara as he leaned his head on her shoulder.
In the image, she can be seen wearing a low-cut black lace tank top, blazer and two necklaces.
Beneath her man’s post, Ciara commented: ‘Truly so thankful for you and our babies! God is good! ️️️’
This year, the couple celebrated their eighth wedding anniversary back in July – with Wilson posting a video to Instagram of some special moments.
Wilson captioned the post, ‘Celebrating 8 years of God’s love & grace over us @Ciara! Since we met, you’ve been my strength in every trial. My joy in every moment. My peace in every prayer.
‘God blessed me with the most incredible gift in you! I am so grateful for our journey together. Here’s to a lifetime more. I love you Mrs. Wilson to Heaven & back.’
Ciara also paid tribute to Wilson in celebration of their anniversary with her own Instagram post, captioned, ‘I love walking with you, talking with you, being in your arms, and doing everything with you! I’m the happiest girl because of how you love me!’
Ciara and Steelers quarterback Russell have been married since 2016, after striking up a romance in 2015.
They welcomed daughter Sienna, seven, in 2017, with their son Win Harrison, three, entering the world in 2021.
They most recently celebrated the birth of their baby daughter, Amora Princess, in December 2023.
Ciara shares son Future Zahir with her ex-fiancé, rapper Future, and Wilson has been praised for raising the child as his own.
In August, Ciara opened up about whether she was planning to extend her brood with the NFL quarterback.
While on The Jennifer Hudson Show, Ciara said: ‘Honestly, I do see the road of baby No. 5—but at the right time.’
The singer then added that she was keen on ‘loving on herself’ for a while before going through the pregnancy process again.
‘I want to grind a little bit. I want to drop it like it’s hot a couple of times,’ she told the host. ‘When I’m trying to drop it like it’s hot with a belly, I can’t get up. I gotta take my time a little bit. Mama gotta love on herself a little bit.’
Russell and Ciara first met at a basketball game in Wisconsin back in 2015. Wilson then invited Ciara out on a dinner date.
The couple made their relationship publicly official at the White House Correspondents dinner that year.
In 2016, Russell popped the question after taking the Body Party star out on a secret trip following Paris Fashion Week.
Ciara’s rep told People at the time: ‘The biggest surprise was that Russell proposed to his new fiancée at the romantic private Honeymoon Beach located on North Island.’
