A fan remarked: "Happy birthday to your mom, what a beautiful ray of light shining on your mum and this beautiful baby here in this picture," whilst a second wrote: "Your mother's beauty is timeless."
Goldie and Kate are incredibly close and Kate lives just a few doors away from her mom in what was her childhood home.
The pair talk every day, with Kate previously telling PopSugar: "I can't really go a week. I've gone a week, but it's super rare".
Kate opened up about her upbringing with her famous mother in an interview with People, revealing that she hoped to follow in Goldie's footsteps when raising her own daughter.

"My mom gave me the floor to be able to feel confident enough to go out and feel like my life could be my own," she said.
"Mom was my greatest cheerleader. And it just made me think about Rani... going, 'I hope I give her that kind of confidence,' you know?"
"Mom always said to be, 'Don't you ever let a man dim your light.' So I've never defined myself through the way a man sees me, but I can define myself in the unit that we can create together," she added. "That is what mom gave to me."
