Max Verstappen, Kelly Piquet, and their daughter Lily celebrated the little one’s first birthday in grand style last month.

Now, Kelly is sharing a beautiful collection of photos paired with heartfelt captions.

Lily was born on April 25 last year, though the couple initially kept the news under wraps.

Max later confirmed her arrival on May 2 in Miami. Kelly chose the name herself, and Lily proudly holds Dutch citizenship.

Reflecting on that time, Max recalled, “I was fortunate to spend a few days with her after she was born. It was amazing, you never know what to expect, but I cherished every moment; it’s truly special.”

A few weeks have passed since the celebration, and Kelly has decided to pause and revisit that joyful occasion through a gorgeous series of photos, including one featuring Max.

“A few weeks ago, we celebrated our dear Lily’s first birthday at a very special place. Watching our daughter grow is one of our greatest joys—please, let time slow down,” she wrote on her post.
