"Beautiful picture. I lost my Mum in 2002, I really miss spoiling her with birthday gifts etc. I give £50 per month to a local charity to make up for it. May your day be filled with lovely memories," wrote one.
A second added: "Thinking of you Lisa. I lost my dad three years ago and it doesn’t get any easier. Much love and hugs coming your way today."

Lisa lost her mum when she was just 16. Julie died at the age of 44 from throat cancer.
Julie has been a constant source of inspiration to the actress and Lisa's first cookery book was actually a collection of her mother’s recipes.
Speaking to HELLO! in 2018, doting mum Lisa explained: "It’s like she’s still around. My mum was such an important part of my life and still is, so I feel that she’s here."
This time last year, Lisa marked her mother's birthday with another moving post, writing: "Happy birthday beautiful mummy who would have been 75 this year. 31 years without her and still some days it hurts my heart so very much. Mostly now I smile as I remember her and talk about her almost daily as if she was still here, 'what would mummy say to this situation?'"
