Andy Murray and his family marked a very special event this week. The tennis star's mum, Judy Murray, took to Instagram to share the celebrations with her followers – and they were quick to react to her sweet post.

Judy, 61, uploaded a photo showing her own mum Eileen enjoying the sunshine with one of her friends. She explained in the caption: "My mother is 87 today so I took her and her bestie Elsie to the Japanese Gardens in Dollar. This is the two of them - combined age 173 - with a pagoda. Or as they preferred to describe it '3 ancient monuments'!"

Last year, he gave a rare insight into the dyanamic between his children, telling The Times: "It can be difficult because the eldest are always wanting - and getting - your attention, whereas the youngest one is left fighting for it a little bit more.

The private couple welcomed their fourth child earlier this year

"But he's a lot more interested in the active stuff, so far. He's always moving around, and gets motivated by balls all around him. He just wants to throw and chase balls the whole time, whereas the two girls were a little bit more mellow [at his age] - so it's quite different."
