“Couple goals!” wrote one person. “Love this team and how they keep it real.”

“Happy Valentine’s Day to you both, you both set a great example for young busy families,” wrote a fifth person.
Hart’s profession of his love came just a little more than a month after he and Pink marked another important occasion: their 14th wedding anniversary. To mark the special day, Hart had again taken to social media to pen a touching message to his wife.
“14 years married to this amazing woman,” he wrote. “I’m so proud of the life that we have built together. Both of us came from broken homes, yet we made the choice to work hard at our relationship. And look at us now! Two misfits when we met, we have grown together and now have an amazing family.”
“Thank you for being my best friend (I know you don’t like that), and amazing mother to our wild kids,” he concluded. “I love you so much.”
Pink later revealed that Hart had sent her flowers with a handwritten note reading, “I love you baby!!! I’m so lucky to have you!! Looking forward to many more!”
Hart and Pink married in 2006 and share daughter Willow, 8, and son Jameson, 3.
