"The babies from the book," Kelly wrote alongside the photo, linking out to her best-selling collection of personal essays, Live Wire.

The two actors first met on the sets of the soap in 1995 when Mark came in for a screen test opposite Kelly, at which point she described in her book she instantly fell for him.

He was eventually hired and they quickly entered a relationship, and in the span of a year, temporarily broke up, got back together, and eloped in Las Vegas the very next day in 1996.

The two have since become parents to three children, those being eldest son Michael, 25, daughter Lola, 21, and youngest Joaquin, 19.
