He captioned the post: 'Happy Birthday to the better Tindall. She's even let me play golf on her birthday!'
In the snap Princess Anne 's daughter looked typically glamourous in a wide-legged jumpsuit from ME + EM which featured a cinched waistline and a ruffled shoulders.
The stunning gown featured a high-neck and a keyhole detail on the chest with ruffle detailing.
Her blonde locks were straight and her glam makeup enhanced her flawless complexion.

Many royal fans rushed to the comments to wish the King's neice a happy birthday.
Mike Tindall has shared a sweet Instagram message to wife Zara on her 44th birthday
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.

MasterChef viewers demand contestant is 'disqualified' after he makes a MAJOR blunder
This year's series of Masterchef had already been marred in controversy, after its stars John Torode and Gregg Wallace were axed by bosses. But viewers were venting their fury for a wholly different reason after Wednesday's episode, as they demanded a contestant be 'disqualified' for a major gaffe. The show saw the remaining six contenders - Naomi, Martin, Joy, Michael, Reuben and Victoria - face the challenge of impressing Gregg and John with their 'basic to brilliant' creations. Contestants were ask to transform everyday home cooking into something 'extraordinary', and IT project manager Reuben chose to present traditional meatballs alongside handmade pappardelle pasta in tomato sauce. Things took a turn when Gregg cut into the meatballs to taste them, only to discover they were still raw inside. Despite earning praise for his pasta and sauce, Gregg and John were quick to share thoughts on the main element of the dish being undercooked. Gregg said: 'Big issue with the meatballs,' whilst John added: 'I cannot ignore the fact that you've got meatballs that aren't cooked all the way through.' Visibly dejected by the feedback, Reuben admitted: 'I'm feeling deflated. After all, they weren't cooked all the way through, so I can forgive them for not wanting to eat them.' Viewers were also quick to make their feelings known on social media, with some claiming Reuben should be 'disqualified' for the gaffe. Posts on X included: 'Undercooked meatballs should be instant disqualification; 'Were they cooked with a blowtorch?; 'Sorry, but that's a major schoolboy error at the stage he should absolutely be disqualified. Shame.' Reuben's meant he ultimately missed out on a place in the quarter-finals, and he was sent home along with Joy and Martin. It comes days after MasterChef was ripped to shreds for its 'disgraceful' editing of Gregg in its latest episode, with viewers declaring: 'Is this for real?' Viewers were also quick to make their feelings known on social media, with some claiming Reuben should be 'disqualified' for the gaffe Gregg and co-host John Torode were sacked after almost 20 years on the show by the BBC last month after an investigation upheld allegations about their poor behaviour. Wallace had 40 complaints upheld, including one where he was accused of wandering around set naked with a sock on his penis. Torode was found to have used a racist term in 2018. Their final series of MasterChef was filmed before they were both fired. The show's bosses have insisted on keeping them in the final edit - but only if they were on screen less and their banter and jokes were cut down to a minimum. Several contestants asked to be edited out themselves to avoid being on screen with them. Daily Mail revealed that viewers have pointed out 'disgraceful' edits in the new series on BBC One and iPlayer, with many cuts appearing awkward and repetitive, including those of Mr Wallace. In one scene shown last week, stills of Gregg pulling the same face three times in around a minute made it to air - with many suggesting that the BBC and production company Banijay used the same footage of the disgraced host repeatedly through the show. Some of his fans have even claimed the edits, where Gregg gives a semi-gurning smile, were deliberately to embarrass him and 'make him look demented'. TikTok user Gingernat Design shared a particularly unusual example, writing: 'Clever editing from MasterChef. 'Whether this is to do with the allegations or not I don't know, but it's jokes how they just froze Gregg Wallace for an entire conversation.' The now-viral clip sees a contestant discuss her performance with Torode and Wallace. The same shot of Wallace appears to be used three times in succession - and he is seen with a broad grin fixed on his face. The uncanny scene has horrified fans, who rushed to social media to express their disapproval.

Celebs Go Dating airs emotional scenes as stars break down in tears over 'triggering' past relationships and difficult childhoods
The Celebs Go Dating agency was turmoil during Wednesday night's episode after two stars broke down in tears in a candid discussion about their past. Olivia Hawkins, 30, admitted to feeling 'triggered' by her past relationships while Sam Prince, 28, said he found himself 'never being enough' for his parents which has left him 'sensitive' when it comes to romance. Speaking to experts Anna Williamson and Dr Tara, former Love Island star Liv discussed her date with Louis Russell - which ended in tears after he kissed someone else during another date. 'It's a trigger of people I've dated from the past,' she explained as she wiped away her tears. 'I've always wanted that instant connection with someone and I really feel that with him, and I know it's so early but I don't think it's the right situation for me.' Liv recalled when she discovered a man she had been dating in the past had a partner. She continued: 'But I just kept going back. I just really wanted to change him and I lost myself a bit.' Meanwhile, Sam headed out on a date with a girl called Annie, who went on to brand him 'nasty' and rate their night a 2/10. He explained: 'As much as I have this persona where people watch me on TV and think I don't give a f**k, I give more of a f**k then ever and I'm very sensitive. 'When I'm in love with someone, I'm so in love. Sometimes I feel like I'm too in love. I rely on that person for everything, and that's where I think I've gone wrong.' Sam then explained how past relationships have left him feeling 'resentful' after giving too much, which he thinks stems from 'never feeling like he was enough' for his parents. Former Love Island star Olivia and Too Hot To Handle 's Louis immediately hit it off after they landed in Ibiza to film the E4 dating show and shared a smooch. However, during Monday evening's instalment, their connection was put to the test as Louis went on a date with a gorgeous brunette, who was later revealed to be Jazmine Nichol. Jazmine entered the Casa Amor Love Island villa in 2022 as a bombshell; however, she failed to find a spark with any of the boys and was dumped from the villa. Sam then explained how past relationships have left him feeling 'resentful' after giving too much, which he thinks stems from 'never feeling like he was enough' for his parents Previously, Olivia and Too Hot To Handle's Louis, 24, immediately hit it off after they landed in Ibiza to film the E4 dating show and shared a smooch Louis and Liv had a very strong connection on the hit E4 show, and things between the pair got steamy in a short matter of time. A show insider told The Sun at the time: 'It usually takes a few weeks for things to spice up, but not with these two. 'Within 48 hours of arriving in Ibiza, the sexual spark between them was obvious. They clearly couldn't resist each other.'
