“Today is @glennwilliamthorejr 79th birthday! My brother and I love my father dearly every day, but today I want to reflect on what my father has meant to our family,” the My Big Fat Fabulous Life star wrote.
“How lucky are we to have been raised by a man who was always so proud of us, who never missed a performance or Daddy-daughter dance class?” she continued. “Who coached our soccer teams and always answered the phone at work when we called him, undoubtedly for something completely unimportant.”
