Avril Lavigne wishes her mother a happy Mother's Day

While Avril Lavigne usually keeps her personal life, especially her family, out of the spotlight, she has occasionally shared a glimpse of her mother on special days. On a few past Mother’s Days, she has posted a photo of her mom with simple captions.

In 2017, the singer posted a photo with her mom with 'Happy Mother's Day' written on a sticker heart made with clouds and decorated with flowers.

Lavigne captioned the post with,

"Happy Mother's Day to my incredible mother and everyone else's mom's out there!"

Three years before that, in 2014, Lavigne posted another post on Mother's Day where Lavigne was seen applying some beauty product on her mother's face. She captioned the post with,
