'You are the biggest gift': Kendra Wilkinson celebrates husband Hank Baskett's 33rd birthday with gushing Instagram message

Former Playboy model Kendra Wilkinson swept aside her ongoing marital woes to post a very complimentary message about her husband on Friday.

In the gushing Instagram post, the 30-year-old mother-of-two had much praise for ex-football player Hank Baskett while wishing him a happy 33rd birthday.

The happy note - in which Kendra called Hank her 'biggest gift' - comes in the midst of more uncertainty about the health of the couples' marriage.

The couple decided a day at the beach at Paradise Cove in Malibu, California would be the perfect spot for the birthday celebration.

Of course son Hank IV, five, and daughter Alijah Mary, 14 months, were there to help their dad celebrate.

She captioned the snap 'Happy 33rd birthday @hank_baskett we love you so much and we are so proud of you. You are the biggest gift to my life and our kids #birthdaylunch #beach #paradisecove #malibu.' 

Some other family was also present for a simple meal of burgers and fries, followed by Hank helping his father blow out the birthday candles. 

Alijah Mary was also seen frolicking with her dad on the beach, near the water.

All the good vibes come at a strange time for the couple, as reports have been mixed as to whether Kendra has truly been able to forgive her husband for a supposedly unwanted sexual encounter with transgender model Ava Masaniai last year.

Just several weeks ago, the 30-year-old reality star appeared a bit bleary-eyed as she made her way into The Argyle nightclub in Hollywood on August 26th to watch live performances from Jason Derulo, DJ Edski, and Fashen.

The night out was part of a Hollywood staycation with friends Adrienne Janic and Jessica Hall.

Though Wilkinson made sure to flaunt her replacement wedding ring after flushing her previous one down the toilet during the height of her marital woes, she made some nebulous comments. 

She told Extra back on August 11th, 'I want to feel young again, hot again, I want to be happy, have fun because I deserve it. I am trying to just look at both sides, is marriage, you know worth the rest of my life or the other side worth the rest of my life?' 

The drama was turned up a notch recently when she admitted, in a preview clip provided to People for her show Kendra on Top on Friday, that 'I'm not doin' too good, still.'

The couple has also appeared on the reality show Marriage Boot camp in an attempt to fix the issues plaguing their relationship.
