“Finding hope in this ?,” she wrote in the caption.
The post received 112,000 likes, and the comments section is filled with positive responses thanking the actress for sharing this sweet moment.
However, there were some critics. “Kissing your kid like your husband. It’s not good for him,” wrote one commenter. “Yeah but it’s gross. That’s how kids get lip herpes. From adult lip kisses,” added another.
