‘The Real’ Host Adrienne Bailon Shares Sweet Birthday Message to Husband Israel: ‘My Soulmate’

As it turns out, there *is* life after dating a Kardashian. In fact, Adrienne Bailon, who dated Rob Kardashian from 2007 to 2009, has gone on to build a beautiful marriage with husband Israel Houghton. So much so, that the former Disney Channel star, 35, couldn’t help but gush over her man on his birthday.

“Feliz Cumpleaños, Amor,” Adrienne began on Sunday, May 19 — which, for those of you who don’t know, means “Happy Birthday, Love” in Spanish. I thank God that you were born!!! EVERYDAY!!! My best friend, my soulmate, the love of my life, my happy place … YOU!” she continued. “I love you with my whole soul, Israel, I like you … I really really really like you.”

Feliz Cumpleaños Amor 💕 I thank God that you were born!!! EVERY DAY!!! My best friend, My soulmate, The love of my life, My happy place…YOU! I love you with my whole soul Israel & I like you… I really really eally like you. “I like you because I don’t know why but everything that happens is nicer with you. I can’t remember when I didn’t like you. It must have been lonesome then. Even if it was the 999th of July. Even if it was August. Even if it was way down at the bottom of November. I would go on choosing you. And you would go on choosing me. Over and over again. “ Forever & Always… @israelhoughton. Happy Birthday! Let’s go take a nap just like this 👆🏽 lol.

The Real host then quoted a heartfelt passage from “I Like You” by Sandol Stoddard Warburg that reads: “I like you because I don’t know why but everything that happens is nicer with you. I can’t remember when I didn’t like you. It must have been lonesome then. Even if it was the 999th of July. Even if it was August. Even if it was way down at the bottom of November. I would go on choosing you. And you would go on choosing me. Over and over again.”

Needless to say, we’re fully tearing up right now. If that wasn’t the most sincere birthday message ever, we don’t know what is! Unsurprisingly plenty of Adrienne’s followers agree. “Imagine being THIS ADORABLE,” Aoki Lee Simmons, daughter of Russell and Kimora Lee, commented. “This caption equals the type of love we all want to experience,” one fan wrote.

“So sweet! Like is more important than love when comes to keeping the friendship in marriage. When she says she really really likes him! That’s really really great! It speaks well for their future together as very happy husband and wife!” added another.

Agreed, agreed and agreed! We certainly see Adrienne and Israel living happily ever after. Enjoy it, you two.
