On Wednesday, Aug. 12, the Catwoman actress, 59, shared multiple snaps of herself on Instagram as she prepared to turn 60 two days later on Friday, Aug. 14.

She then shared two similar images that were close-up, beaming for the camera as she posed in the stunning tropical spot.

Berry’s last snap in the carousel featured a mug with the words “Love is Love” written on it.

Berry’s posts come after she revealed on Instagram earlier this week that she was heading on a birthday trip, posting a mirror shot with a suitcase.

“LOOK who’s going on another Birthday celebration vacation?! This time just me and my man !” Berry captioned the post.

The star has been making the most of the summer, sharing numerous snaps of herself and her fiancé, Van Hunt, on a getaway to Fiji.

She shared in an Instagram video on Aug. 1 — while celebrating the launch of her Juicy Like A Peach Respin vaginal moisturizer collaboration with Joylux — that she was marking her upcoming milestone birthday on the trip.

“I don’t know how that happened, but I thank God every day that it did; I’ve never felt better, mind, body and spirit. Time is a construct and age is just a number, so, who cares?” she insisted of her milestone birthday in the video.

Berry’s trip with her fiancé comes after she announced that they were set to tie the knot earlier this year.

She confirmed the plans during an appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon on Feb. 5, telling host Jimmy Fallon that there had been some “confusion” among fans about her and Hunt’s relationship status after their almost six years of dating.

Showing off her engagement ring, Berry — who previously put Hunt’s proposal on hold — said of her other half, “He did put a little ring on it.”

Fallon seemed visibly surprised by the size of the rock on Berry’s ring finger, saying at the time, “Oh, a little.”
