Emma Roberts and Garrett Hedlund’s son Rhodes just turned 4 – and his parents celebrated by posting some sweet snaps to mark the occasion.
Both Roberts, 33, and Hedlund, 40, shared photos of Rhodes via their respective Instagram accounts on Thursday, December 27.
“Happy Birthday angel boy 
4!!” Roberts, who dated Hedlund for three years before they called in quits in 2022, wrote.
For his part, Hedlund shared his own photos of Rhodes and wrote a loving message alongside the father-son images.

“Happy 4th Birthday to my dearest Rhodes!” Hedlund wrote. “My ‘where the roses grow.’ My heart. Here’s to our new year of endless journeys!!!”
Fans were quick to notice the strong similarities between Rhodes and his mom in particular, flocking to the comments section to point out the striking similarity in looks.
“Tell me you’re Emma Roberts’ son without saying anything! He’s your double!” wrote one follower on Robert’s post, while another added, “Have the MOTHER face.”
Echoing the sentiment, another fan wrote, “I can see the Robert’s blood it runs strong!” A further comment read, “He’s 4 already!!! @emmaroberts your mini me. HBD Roadie ”
Roberts and Hedlund kept their relationship largely out of the public eye while dating. They were first linked in 2019 and news broke in August 2020 that they were expecting their first child together.
“Garrett is really looking forward to becoming a dad and feels as though this is something he needed,” a source exclusively told Us in November 2020. “He is ready to take on all the daddy duties, and Emma getting pregnant has forced him to become more responsible. He thinks that’s a blessing.”
Hedlund and Roberts ultimately called time on their relationship in January 2022 and an insider told Us Weekly a month later there was no animosity.
“They have a very amicable relationship with each other and are being very adult about their breakup,” the insider explained in February 2022.

Roberts previously touched on her experience with motherhood while speaking to Jamie Lee Curtis for Violet Grey in March 2021.
“It’s not something you’ll always feel like you’re getting right, but you will get better every day,” she said when asked about parenting advice she wished she’d gotten ahead of the infant’s birth. “When in doubt, just love your child and yourself.”
Hedlund gushed about his fatherhood journey in an interview with Extra in July 2021.
“I’ve done a lot of dad things,” the actor told the outlet. “The best part is we were just in Boston, my gal, [Emma Roberts], was working so it was every day all day with mister young man. My favorite part of every day was the bedtime stories [with] me telling him stories of his grandfathers, which was wonderful for me and hopefully him. It was just a really sweet, connecting dad moment.”
