Considered by many, it was the icing on the cake of sincere birthday wishes: wishing the whole universe to celebrate life using a vintage photo on Marika Dominczyk’s birthday. The caption reads: “How it started. How it currently is. I wouldnt change a minute. Happy birthday @themeanchick. I hope this day is all you ask. ❤️”

The photo portrays a stunning Dominczyk in what appears to be a wedding moment, clad in pearls on her wrist, with an extraordinary setting outdoors on the shores from where far distant sceneries bloom faintly, and then there’s that killer serene expression: One second, pictures like these, halt your scroll.
Heartfelt thank-yous started burglarizing the comments from friends and well-wishers. Another actor, Adam Kaplan, says, “Stunning then, stunning now!” Others commented that she “hasn’t aged and looks incredible.” Well, so true-wife has surely located where the fountain is.
The celebrations soared with Miller wishing her well, suggesting some sort of summer plan, and the present day being perfect for Marika to reward herself for something warm-hearted. Dominczyk reciprocated the sentiment, destroying any shred of doubt about the authenticity of these celebrity friendships. One excited fan just couldn’t end an interaction without a nod to Foley’s hilarious holiday shopping videos, well, I cry laughing at all of them, too!
International in flavor, the Poles, “Wszystkiego najlepszego z okazji urodzin” (in case you missed it, that means Happy Birthday in Polish!) And then there was this somewhat poetic compliment to Dominczyk-who is probably one of the nicest praises possible-in a nutshell: “seemingly as beautiful on the inside as she is out.”
By the way, that @themeanchick nickname is an inside joke with the two, and Foley’s use of it here adds a pinpoint amount of playful intimacy to what would otherwise have been an already touching tribute. The couple has been married since 2007, so this post basically says they’re still honeymooning.
But beyond birthday wishes, the photo says something else. That peaceful look, those pearls, that view… forever captured. One can almost hear the sudden burst of laughter underneath the photos, feel the love dripping from it. Multiply that feeling with the simple but powerful caption that gives us a precise reminder to cherish every moment.
What makes this post truly something else is not the celebrity factor; it is the mere feeling of pseudo-reality. In a world full of curated influencer content and merch, an honest outpouring of love from two people who have stood the test of time should still be celebrated. Foley could have just posted a token “Happy birthday, babe,” and that would have been all. But no, he went a lot deeper with this. That “wouldn’t change a minute” line? Chef’s kiss.

The very people who met on the set of Felicity somehow went on to build a life with three kids between them. From the birthday shoutout, it seems like those two are still each other’s biggest fans. Here’s to many more years of love and laughter and Instagram tributes perfectly pieced together.
