LeAnn Rimes' stepson is growing up fast as he ushered in his milestone 18th birthday on Tuesday. To celebrate the big day, Eddie Cibrian took to his Instagram to post a special tribute to his lookalike son.
The 51-year-old shared a photo of himself posing with Jake, set against the backdrop of a stunning pink-flowered tree. The father-and-son duo looked like twins as they coordinated in matching monochromatic ensembles. Eddie donned an ivory-hued t-shirt as he held up his phone to capture the image.

Eddie captioned the post: "We have birthday boy in the house! @jakecibrian is officially 18! Holy cow."

The "Can't Fight The Moonlight" singer is a doting stepmom to her husband's two sons, Mason, 21, and Jake, 18, whom he shares with his ex-wife Brandi Glanville. The former couple were married from 2001 to 2009.
LeAnn and Eddie tied the knot back in 2011 and the singer has since been vocal in interviews about her blended family.

"That responsibility, to help raise kids, it’s something that hits you really hard. It was something I was up for the challenge of. They bring so much joy to my life, and it’s a new experience every day."
LeAnn's career news
It has been a big week of celebrations for the household as LeAnn was announced as The Voice's season 27 Mega Mentor on Tuesday. The country singer will assist the coaches and contestants on the NBC singing competition during the playoff round.

Blended family
The Grammy Award-winning singer has maintained an amicable relationship with the mother of her stepsons. During an episode of her podcast Brandi Glanville Unfiltered in December last year, Brandi revealed she wanted her kids to spend the holidays with both their parents.

"I mean, you guys don't understand the love I have for these children. Like, I would take a bullet for them. What was I gonna do? Stay over here in my house, be lonely during Christmas or go be with, like, my beloved children and my in-laws who I'm obsessed with and love?."
