A larger photo from Durham’s post showed the whole dinner party, with son Michael sitting to her other side. He was joined by Sunni Gaines, who is presumed to be his girlfriend. Across the table were Brendan and Ella, and they were joined by Durham’s father, her younger brother, and his wife. Everyone was all smiles for the model’s big day, which was also celebrated with a stunning purple ombre rosette birthday cake topped with a collection of coordinating flowers.

Wahlberg has previously credited his beautiful wife with helping him grow into the father that he is today. In a 2018 interview with The Sun, he gushed, “I owe a lot to my wife. She has helped me become the man that I am, and created a beautiful life for me and our children. I also knew that she loved me for who I am, and that she was someone I could trust. Until I met her, I wasn’t ready to have a family.”

The couple met at a press junket in New York City back in 2001, and Wahlberg said he quickly knew that she was “the one.” The longtime couple were joined by children Ella, Michael, and Brendan when they tied the knot at Good Shepherd Catholic Church in Beverly Hills in 2009. They welcomed youngest daughter Grace the following year.
