They grow up so fast! Australian golden couple Bec and Lleyton Hewitt have marked their youngest child’s 7th birthday by sharing adorable new photos of their daughter on Instagram.

On Thursday evening, proud Bec posted two photos of her gorgeous daughter who shares a striking likeness to her.

The 7-year-old looked every bit the birthday girl in a gold sequin top, colourful tulle tutu skirt, and a pretty flower headband.

“My baby girl is 7 today!! Happy birthday beautiful!” Bec captioned the photo of her mini-me daughter.

“You are a little ray of sunshine that brightens everyone’s day!” she added.

Ava’s dad, Lleyton also jumped onto Instragram to wish his youngest daughter a happy birthday.

“Happy 7th birthday to our beautiful little princess,” he wrote.

And she did indeed look like a princess in her special birthday outfit and sparkling tiara. Too cute!

Recently Bec shared a rare picture of her daughter holding the family’s dog.

With her long blonde locks, big eyes, adorable chin dimple and captivating smile it’s easy to see so many of Bec’s striking features shining through.

It didn’t take long for fans to point out just how much she looks like her famous mum.

“She is the spitting image of you,” @analyce_clarke wrote.

“Wow! So so adorable, just like you,” another well-wisher penned.

“Looks just like her mummy,” agreed one fan.

“Such a beautiful resemblance between you both,” added another.

And it looks like Ava and her older sister Mia, 11, are set to follow in Bec’s showbusiness footsteps with the girls trying their hand at some child modelling, too.
