Arthur Gourounlian and Brian Dowling have marked their daughter Blake’s fourth birthday with a touching tribute to their “beautiful” little girl.
Blake, who was born via surrogacy in 2022, is now officially four years old, with her proud dads reflecting on just how much joy she has brought into their lives.
Taking to Instgarm today, Arthur shared a video reel of sweet family moments alongside an emotional message.
“Happy 4th birthday to our beautiful Blake Maria Rose,” Arthur wrote.
“Four years ago, you came into our lives, and from that moment, our world became brighter, louder, cheekier and filled with a love we never knew existed.”

Arthur went on to praise Blake’s personality, describing her as “fearless, funny, sassy, and thoughtful” and revealing just how proud he and Brian are of the little girl she is becoming.
“You hear music and instantly find your stage, lighting up every room with your dancing, singing and that incredible confidence of yours.”
The proud dad finished his heartfelt message by telling his daughter just how much she means to their family.
“We are so incredibly proud of you, and we love you more than words could ever say,” he wrote, signing off with: “Dada, Papa & Blu.”
The emotional tribute comes after Brian and Arthur threw their daughter a very special early birthday celebration over the weekend.
The couple went all out with a superhero and princess-themed party, with Blake taking centre stage in a blue Cinderella-inspired dress while her younger sister Blu looked adorable as Rapunzel.
Meanwhile, Brian dressed up as Superman and Arthur embraced the theme as the Hulk.
Brian previously revealed that the birthday girl herself was firmly in charge of the celebrations this year, explaining that after choosing the venue and outfits for the previous three birthdays, Blake had decided exactly how she wanted her special day to look.
“Clearly, turning 4 has made Ms Blake rather decisive, and I’m 100% here for it. She knew where she wanted to have it & what we were all wearing,” he noted.
The family-of-four were joined by friends and loved ones for the celebrations, with Brian and Arthur sharing plenty of adorable snaps from the fun-filled day.
