Katia also celebrated her birthday on social media, sharing a warm post which included a photo with her family. In her caption, Katia mentioned suffering the effects of postpartum, like sleep deprivation, while being grateful to have everything she needs.

"No birthday glam this year—just deep gratitude and the raw reality of postpartum life: sleep-deprived, makeup-free, living in pajamas… and somehow, never more whole," Katia wrote in her caption.

"Thirty-one years have led me here, to a single frame that holds everything I love. Three perfect souls born from mine, and a partner who is my strength and my peace. My eyes are tired, my hands are full, but my heart and my soul? Overflowing. This is everything. This is home. Paquito, Kalina, Amapola and Koa—you are my world, the greatest gift I have. 💝 #ThisIs31"
