Willow Smith turned 23 on October 31, and celebrated her big day with her loved ones, who all shared birthday messages dedicated to the singer on social media.
When it came to Will Smith's tribute, the Whip My Hair hitmaker had quite the surprising reaction too!
The Fresh Prince of Bel Air actor took to Instagram to share a lovely photo of himself posing on a boat with his youngest child. He had added the text 'Being a girl dad,' on top of the picture, and in the caption, he wrote: "Wouldn’t have it any other way. Love you, Bean. Happy Bday!"
Willow replied: "Ahahaha!! 'Oh yeah it’s worth it… if you’re strong enough.'" Willow's mom, Jada Pinkett Smith, had also paid tribute to the birthday girl on her own social media platforms.
The Worthy author took to Instagram to share a montage featuring a selection of videos of Willow taken from over the years.
The majority of the clips focused on Willow performing on stage, which fitted in nicely considering the talented singer will be releasing a new single on November 3.

The book left fans open-mouthed as the star made some bombshell revelations about her family, most notably the fact that she and Will were no longer an item, having secretly parted ways in 2016, deciding that they were "going to live completely separate lives".
Having said that, Will and Jada are still incredibly close, and the actor has been very supportive of the Red Table Talks star following the release of her book, even attending book signing events with the rest of the family.

Nov 3."
