Standing in the garden with his two sons and his wife Alejandra Silva, after recently moving to Spain, Richard promoted non-profit organization Open Arms.
Standing beside Alejandra with their two sons in front of them, Richard smiled and penned a meaningful caption.
He said: "This whole family is a proud supporter of @openarms_fund and their mission to save lives. @alejandragere."
In the snap, the four family members posed while donning matching sweatshirts promoting non-profit Open Arms.
According to the foundation's website, Open Arms "provides a home away from home at no cost for those who must travel to receive medical treatment".
Richard married his wife Alejandra, who was seen beaming beside him in the new snap, in 2018.
The smitten couple share two sons, Alexander who is six years of age, and James who is five.
Richard also has a third son, Homer, from his previous marriage to Carey Lowell.
Fans were quick to react to the sweet snap, with one person commenting: "Lovely family."
Another said: "Very beautiful family, all 4 of them are beautiful."

While a third added: "Congratulations to this beautiful couple, and their beautiful children."
"Love you and your family," penned a fourth.
And a fifth wrote: "What a truly beautiful family. Love to Richard from Los Angeles."
While a sixth swooned: "Sweet picture."
The Pretty Woman actor, who starred alongside Julia Roberts in the hit movie, has been involved - publicly - with the organization Open Arms since 2019.
It was in 2019 that he was first publicly linked to the charity.
This came when he was seen on a rescue vessel on the Mediterranean Sea.
While he was on the vessel, Richard helped to take supplies to the 121 migrants on board.
The migrants had all fled Libya.
Speaking about his decision to go on the boat and offer his assistance, Richard said how "inspired" he was to do so at the time.
In a chat with The Guardian he said: "I'm inspired by Open Arms.
"I'm deeply committed to their point of view of the universe,' he told the outlet."
He added: "They're dealing up close with these people, and that's where you want to get your information.
"They said it was deeply serious, not only to them, but to other rescue boats as well.
"And that's when I made a very quick decision. I said: 'Look, I gotta see this for myself.' I jumped in a car and arrived at the Rome airport in literally five minutes."

EuroMillions jackpot rolls over AGAIN as UK's biggest ever prize at £208m goes unclaimed
A EUROMILLIONS £208million jackpot - Britain's largest ever prize - has gone unclaimed. Lotto players were disappointed to discover no one bagged the eye-watering sum this evening. 2 The jackpot on Tuesday will be an estimated £208 million and would be the largest prize the UK has seen. Andy Carter, senior winners' adviser at Allwyn, said: "Tuesday sees the £208 million EuroMillions jackpot still up for grabs. "A win of this magnitude would create the biggest National Lottery winner this country has ever seen - making a single UK winner instantly richer than the likes of Dua Lipa and Harry Kane while also landing them at the number one spot on the National Lottery's biggest wins list. "The EuroMillions jackpot is now capped, so any money that would have gone into increasing the jackpot now boosts prizes in the next winning prize tier, meaning that we could see multiple UK players banking huge prizes for matching just the five main numbers and one Lucky Star." The main EuroMillions winning numbers were 20, 21, 29, 30, 35 and the Lucky Stars were 02, 12. One UK ticket-holder became a millionaire after matching five main numbers and one Lucky Star, winning £2.02 million. No players won the £500,000 Thunderball jackpot by matching the five Thunderball numbers, 03, 14, 31, 32, 34, and the Thunderball number 06. Andy Carter, senior winners' adviser at Allwyn said yesterday: "We are now on the verge of potentially creating the biggest National Lottery winner this country has ever seen - making a single UK winner instantly richer than the likes of Adele and Dua Lipa while also landing them at the number one spot on The National Lottery's biggest wins list." An anonymous UK ticket holder won the existing record jackpot of £195 million on July 19 2022. Just two months earlier, Joe and Jess Thwaite, from Gloucester, bagged £184,262,899 with a Lucky Dip ticket for the draw on May 10. The UK's third biggest win came after an anonymous ticket-holder scooped the £177 million jackpot on November 26 last year. It came after 11 millionaires were made on the National Lottery draw in just one week in 2024. One lucky Brit won a cool £33million with their Euromillions ticket. Another ticket, which was snagged in the UK, matched all five main numbers and two Lucky Stars. It came just weeks after two players from the same county scooped £1m each. EuroMillions jackpot winner Frances Connolly reveals surprising first item she bought with £114m jackpot This year, the largest win was seen in January with £83million. A previous EuroMillions lottery winner, who scooped an eye-watering £107million jackpot, has revealed why he went public with the news. Neil Trotter bagged the whopping prize money and was faced with a huge decision whether or not to remain anonymous. The 45-year-old chose to splash the cash and filled his driveway with a Jaguar and a Porsche - before upgrading their parking spaces to a luxury mansion. But, Neil explained it can be tricky to go public because of pressure to provide people with money. However, he was overjoyed to buy his sister a house, and help out family and friends privately. He told the BBC: "It was quite tricky but I don't really see that there's any option [other] than to go public. "If you want to live the dream - which is have the house, the money and spend it, you've got to go public. "People have said in the past they would hide the money, I think £170million is going to be impossible to hide. "This is the lake that I bought and the big house and I'm living my dream." But he did previously admit he has been hounded by people making up claims to snap up his cash. He said: "I have had loads of people contact me on Facebook, I've probably got about four million kids in this country. "Everyone wants a bit of money." Elsewhere, a lucky couple thought they'd only bagged £2.60 on the lottery - but soon discovered they had scooped the £61million jackpot. Richard and Debbie Nuttall, both 54, from Colne, Lancashire, took home the life-changing sum in the EuroMillions draw. The couple were enjoying a holiday in Fuerteventura, celebrating their 30th wedding anniversary, when they discovered the big win. Richard revealed they originally thought they had won £2.60, but then received another email telling the pair to check their account. 'I thought it was odd and there must be a glitch in the system to get a duplicate email but I logged in again to my National Lottery account to check," he explained. "We were totally stunned, it said we had won over £61million," said the winner.

Sex Pistols legend John Lydon reveals he 'hates' Oasis' music and finds it 'difficult' to go to other people's gigs
has revealed he 'hates' Oasis' music and finds it difficult to enjoy himself at other people's gigs. The legendary rocker, 69, best known as the lead vocalist of the punk band the Sex Pistols, said he's likely one of the only British music stars who won't be attending the highly anticipated Oasis reunion shows. When asked if he would be going to see Noel, 58, and Liam Gallagher, 52, perform, he told The Sun: 'No. They're my mates but I hate their music. He added: 'It's very difficult for me to go to other people's gigs. People don't leave me alone and let me enjoy myself. 'I knocked it on the head a few years ago. I love dancing, you're enjoying yourself and some a*****e will stand right in front of you and waffle banal nonsense which is distracting you from the point and purpose.' From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the Daily Mail's new showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. Speaking to the publication from his UK tour with his band Public Image Ltd, John added that he loves Noel because he just 'says it like it is'. He also said that the Gallagher brothers make him laugh during interviews, describing them as 'witty' and 'on it in a working-class, quick-as-you-can way'. The interview comes after he opened up on the loss of his wife last month. The singer lost his beloved spouse of 44 years Nora Foster in April 2023 after a five-year battle with Alzheimer's disease. John, who was known as Johnny Rotten during his Sex Pistols days, had drawn an incredible amount of public sympathy following her death having selflessly cared for Nora full-time until her final hours. Now over two years after she passed, the extravagant singer has opened up on the 'agony' he felt as Nora suffered a painful death. In an interview with The Daily Telegraph, the 69-year-old said: 'The pain will never go away. She died painfully, suffocating. They call it the death rattle.' Recalling the moment doctors asked him whether they should prolong Nora's life, he added: 'I couldn't say "yes, stop". No, I fought for her life as hard as she fought for it. 'It's insane, and you don't know how to handle it (the death of a partner). And you can end up being really aggressive with people mollycoddling you. But you have to be full of rage to break out of it, or you'll end up as that sympathetic doddering old idiot that you know you would hate yourself.' The singer had previously admitted he 'always loved' Nora having met her in 1975 at a Vivienne Westwood clothes shop - 'there was an instant attraction,' he said. Following her death, John had 'wallowed in alcohol and sadness and self-pity,' he told Metro, but the singer has since come out of that struggle. He insists however that the agony of losing Nora will never go away. John is currently on his Not The Last Tour with his post-Sex Pistols band PiL (Public Image Ltd). Despite his grief, the artist insisted that the 28-date tour isn't a farewell but more a tongue-in-cheek dig at bands who falsely claim they're bowing out. 'The industry is riddled with artists claiming they're on their final tour but have already booked themselves for five years after,' he quipped. But while John is on his tour, his old band - consisting of Steve Jones, Paul Cook and Glen Matlock - are enjoying their own with new frontman Frank Carter. John previously blasted the Sex Pistols recent tour as 'karaoke', branding the group 'impossible to deal with'. The singer revealed he is indeed no longer on speaking terms with his old bandmates after they fell out over a Disney+ TV series he opposed. The dispute resulted in a High Court battle between John and the Sex Pistols over the use of the band's music in the series - which Rotten ultimately lost. John said he 'won't forget' that his old bandmates 'dragged him through the courts' while Nora was seriously ill. The Sex Pistols shot to fame after forming in 1975, but just three years later they had split up. Their only album together, Never Mind the B******s* - a UK number one - is now a staple of punk rock. The band - whose controversial legacy rests upon their anti-establishment values - famously called the Royal family 'fascists' in 1977's God Save The Queen. But in 1978, John formed Public Image Ltd, with the first line-up of the band including bassist Jah Wobble and former Clash guitarist Keith Levene. The group's lineup has changed several times over the last 40-plus-years with John remaining a constant member.
