"Happy 9 year anniversary @culkamania ! As I sit here at this airport, just having wrapped on set and about to fly home to see you and our babies- I can't help but be a little sentimental and reminisce at how fast 9 years can fly by when I get to enjoy life with you," she wrote in the caption.

Song continued, "My life burst into color when you walked into it. I will never know what I did to deserve you and this life that we lead, but I am forever grateful. I truly can't imagine doing this whole life thing without you. It's not always easy but it's always worth it."
"I love you more and more each day," Song added. "You're stuck with me."
Song and Culkin are parents to two children: Dakota, 5, and Carson, whom they welcomed in 2022.

"Today marks a very special day for me. It's been 9 years since my life changed forever," Culkin wrote in his own Instagram post on June 17, referencing the start of his and Song's romance. "It's amazing to think that 1 in every 5 days I've been alive I have had the honor of waking up next to the love of my life. My only regret is that we haven't had more time together."
