Lea Michele Celebrates 31st Birthday After Professing Love For Boyfriend Zandy Reich

“Glee” alum Lea Michele is celebrating her 31st birthday today!

The singer-actress posted a photo of herself a few hours before Aug. 29 via her Instagram account. In the snap, Michele is walking away from the camera, but she is looking back at the person behind her. She is wearing shorts and a blue sweater and carries a yellow-orange helmet in her hand. Michele captioned the photo saying, “walking into the week like…”

Prior to sharing her new picture, Michele also expressed her love for her boyfriend, Zandy Reich, via social media. In the photo she shared, the couple’s backs are turned towards the camera, and they are looking out into the stunning beach.

Michele’s caption is as romantic as their couple shot since she revealed to her 4.8 million followers what Reich told her last year. According to the former Fox actress, her boyfriend said that 30 would be the best year of her life, and he was right. Michele, who played the role of Rachel Berry, admitted that she has many things to be grateful for, and Reich is definitely one of them.

Reich and Michele have been dating for quite some time, but it was only last year that they were spotted holding hands while taking a stroll in New York. According to People, the president of AYR clothing company and Michele have been friends for a while before dating. “They’ve been friends for a long time, a few years. Things turned romantic recently and they’re dating now,” a source told the publication.

Meanwhile, Michele is not only kept busy by her relationship with Reich as the actress stars in ABC’s new comedy, “The Mayor” as well. She also released her album, “Places,” in April.

Talking about the tracks in her newest album, Michele told People, “My first record had a little bit of heaviness to it and was obviously more of a pop-heavy rock. For this one, I really just kind of went back to my roots and the music I grew up listening to. Where I’m at in my life right now, which is in a really happy, positive and inspired place, I wanted all of that to really reflect in my music.”
