One person wrote: 'Happy birthday Zara! You are always beautiful.❤️'
Another added: 'A very happy birthday to Zara ❤️❤️ You two have a sweet family, and Zara is a wonderful woman.'
Another added: 'Wishing the happiest birthday to the beautiful Zara! I hope you'll have a great day together.'
It's not known if the pair have plans to celebrate Zara's birthday together but last year Mike celebrated his 46th birthday in Barcelona with Zara.
The couple appeared carefree as they relaxed on a yacht and joined spectators at Port Vell along the beach to Port Olímpic to show support for Ineos Britannia, who were competing in the 37th America's Cup.
A second photo shows the couple - joined by two friends - raising glasses of bubbles at the camera, as Mike beamed while layered up in a grey wool jumper.
It comes after Zara looked to be in high spirits as she attended the fifth and final day of the MARS Badminton Horse Trials on Sunday to collect a revered accolade.
She beamed as she posed with other attendees at the event, which kicked off in Gloucestershire on Wednesday.
Radiating sporty casual, the daughter of Princess Anne dressed for the warmer weather in wide-leg jeans and a blue cropped jacket, adorned with golden buttons.
She kept her blonde tresses out of her face with a ponytail, and looked excited to chat with others at event - even being snapped giggling at something.
Keeping her look practical yet classy, the mother-of-three donned simple white trainers.
For her make-up, Zara opted for a fresh-faced visage that accentuated her eyes, and kept accessories minimal.
The Badminton Horse Trials are known to be 'one of the toughest and most exciting equestrian events – the pinnacle of the worldwide horse trials calendar'.
For four days, competitors are tested on a myriad of disciplines, including dressage, a cross country course and show jumps.
It was also a big day for Zara, who today collected her first 'Armada Dish', which is usually awarded for five completions of the event.
Oozing pride, the royal posed with her flat-shaped trophy.
It comes as, just weeks ago, Zara and Mike Tindall appeared just as in love as ever as they were snapped gazing adoringly at one another while attending the final day of the Cheltenham Festival.
Zara and her former rugby player husband, 46, appeared reluctant to take their eyes off of each other as they posed up a storm at the racecourse.
Proving their fashion prowess, the loved-up pair even coordinated their ensembles, with Zara look glamorous in a turquoise V-neck coat and a matching statement headpiece.
Taking style tips from his stylish wife, Mike wore a similar coloured tie with his smart grey suit and striped shirt.
Looking effortlessly elegant, Zara teamed her vibrant coat with a navy turtleneck, as well as £435 high heeled Regina boots and the £345 Loxley Navy Croc Handbag, both from Fairfax & Favor.
Adding a touch of glitz to her outfit, Princess Anne's daughter opted for a set of delicate pearl earrings, while keeping the sun from her eyes with a pair of sunglasses.
The royal equestrian and former Olympian kept her makeup to a minimum, allowing her flawless complexion to shine through a sheer layer of foundation while opting for a swipe of pink lipstick.
Mike and Zara, in her role as Cheltenham Racecourse Director, have attended everyday of the festival, joining Queen Camilla, the Princess Royal and Princess Eugenie on the various days.
At today's event, Princess Anne also stepped out at the racecourse, alongside Andrew Parker Bowles, whom she briefly dated in the 1970s, at the races. Mr Parker Bowles is the ex-husband of Queen Camilla.

Country diary 1950: Everyday life at Dippersmoor Manor
HEREFORD: As I went up the pitch just outside my gate called Hangman's Hill a polecat passed on the road in front of me. The keeper on a nearby estate told me he had trapped about 40 in the last few years but had never seen a polecat alive. Ravens still build in the big wood. I saw one on a misty morning flying low down; it was croaking dismally. Sheep-shearing is nearly over; it must be a relief to the ewes in this fierce sun to get their mantles peeled off. So far my lamb has only gone round and watched the shearing. A hitherto indolent young tom cat has killed and eaten a large grey squirrel, leaving only the flat tail – a very sporting effort. And the old tabby cat has two coal-black kittens in the barn; I hope they may be lucky – they are certainly not beautiful and will, I trust, stay out there.

She explained: 'I sit in there… have some activated charcoal or something, do a proper detox… go to bed, you'll wake up tip-top.' Admitting that wine was her 'drug of choice' she explained: 'I really hit right bottom kind of early doors really. 'I was very much white wine. And drinking. White wine vodka, beer didn't get me as much, but I would take that on a very last course of action. 'And weirdly, nicotine didn't get me either. As soon as I put the drink down, nicotine didn't. 'So I was pretty lucky with that accessibility because alcohol is really accessible, drugs and all.
