Ree Drummond’s birthday wish to son-in-law

Drummond has a special relationship with her son-in-law Mauricio. On his birthday, The Pioneer Woman star dedicated a special post to him as well as photos showcasing his nobleness.

“I hope these ten photos give you a little glimpse into the incredible fella I get to call my son-in-law,” Drummond posted on Instagram. “He’s full of love and full of life, and that’s a pretty wonderful combination. Happy birthday, Mauricio!! We love you!”

After the Food Network personality shared the pictures, it wasn’t long before fans weighed in and also praised Mauricio in celebration of his birthday.

“Love the picture with his mom seems to be a great guy,” a fan replied.

“You and your daughter are so fortunate to have such a great guy,” a follower added.

“You have such an amazing love of life and family!! Wishing your family all the best,” an Instagram user said.

“What a blessing! He and Alex are so cute together! Love watching their journey unfold! Happy Birthday, Mauricio! ¡Feliz Cumpleaños! Hope your year is wonderfully blessed!” another fan expressed.

“There was never a chance you wouldn’t be blessed with an awesome son-in-law. Ladd teaches your daughters what they should look for in a potential husband and not to settle for less. Many happy returns to Mauricio!” another follower said.

“It’s the pic with Mom that melts my heart! Happy Birthday to a special human,” another Instagram user noted.

Ree Drummond shares sweet moment with son-in-law

This was not the first time that Drummond has praised her son-in-law. Back in November, the celebrity chef shared a sweet moment between her and Mauricio. The family had attended a big football game and Drummond expressed her gratitude for her daughter’s husband following a sweet gesture.

“Find the kind of a son-in-law who carries your purse to the truck after a big game. It was packed full of cowbells and I guess he could tell I was struggling,” Drummond posted.

In the photo, Drummond and Mauricio are seen posing for a photo and they were all bundled up with warm clothes on the seemingly cold night. With smiles on both of their faces, Mauricio is seen holding a bag of all the stuff they carried for the game. This gesture freed up Drummond who didn’t have to carry the things and could take the night easy.

Drummond recently shared that her original production crew is coming back to film The Pioneer Woman and also teased they would be getting more footage from the range.

“Looking forward to starting filming again next month!” Drummond teased on Instagram on Jan. 15. “We’re going to start shooting more of the ranch activities again, which I’ve missed…and later this summer, my original crew from the U.K. will be coming back for the first time in over two years.”
