Madonna got nostalgic for ex-husband Sean Penn on Friday, posting an old photo of them for her fans.
"It's almost our birthdays!" the Material Girl wrote on Instagram under the caption of the photo. "2 Leo's #rebelhearts photo by Herb Ritts another Leo," she added.
Madonna, 57 as of Sunday, was married to Penn, who turns 55 on Monday, from 1985 to 1989. They split after just two years together, however, in 1987.
Entertainment Tonight described the relationship as "rocky at best," but the couple did have good times in addition to the bad, and Madonna even dedicated her 1886 album "True Blue" to her then-hubby: "This is dedicated to my husband, the coolest guy in the universe."
After the divorce the pair have become good friends, and
People magazine reported that Penn even attended a show during Madonna's MDNA tour in 2012.
"I’m very friendly with my first ex-wife," Penn said in an interview earlier this year.
Madonna released her thirteenth studio album this year, "Rebel Heart." The album's third single, "B**** I'm Madonna feat. Nicki Minaj," was her first song to enter the Billboard Hot 100 in three years.
