Sarah Michelle Gellar Shares a Cheeky Bikini Photo on Tropical Family Getaway

Sarah Michelle Gellar is enjoying a scenic spring break with husband Freddie Prinze Jr. and their kids Charlotte and Rocky.

On Thursday, the actress, 46, shared several photos from the family’s tropical getaway in an Instagram carousel.

“Vacation dump part one,” she wrote in the caption, including a camera emoji.

In one photo, the Buffy the Vampire Slayer star holds a straw hat over her torso, with no bathing suit top visible as she smizes up at the camera. In another snap, shared to her Instagram Stories, she's seen sporting a strapless bikini top.

Another photo sees the mom of two posing amid palm trees in a floral dress against a stunning sunset backdrop. And in one romantic image, she embraces husband Prinze.

Gellar also shared images from the trip to her Instagram Stories, including one of Charlotte, 14, leaping into the air, captioned, “My girl.” 

“My boys,” the actress wrote over a picture of Prinze and Rocky, 11, tossing a football.

She also documented her beach reads, which included Keep Your Friends Close by Leah Konen, Everyone Who Can Forgive Me Is Dead by Jenny Hollander, The Guest by B.A. Paris and First Lie Wins by Ashley Elston.

While Gellar regularly posts pictures from her family vacations, she admitted in January that it’s “not easy” to get Prinze in photos.

Last month, she marked her husband’s 48th birthday with a playful Instagram post referencing the popular internet meme based on a viral Turkish chef, Nurset Gokce.

“#saltbae has nothing on my birthday bae @realfreddieprinze #happybirthday,” she captioned a photo of Prinze salting a piece of meat.

The couple had another reason to celebrate in September, when they marked their 21st wedding anniversary.

Gellar took the opportunity to post a sweet throwback wedding photo on Instagram.

“@realfreddieprinze what’s customary for 21 years?,” Gellar joked in the post’s caption. “I believe it’s @celine or is it @loewe ?!?”

The pair, who costarred in Scooby-Doo and first met on the set of 1997's I Know What You Did Last Summer, tied the knot in 2002 at the El Careyes resort in Mexico. 

"We are each other's best friend," Gellar said at the time. "He is my first love."

In 2020, Gellar shared one of the keys to their successful marriage in an interview with PEOPLE: being mindful and present. 

"Take the 10 minutes – put the phone down. Have a cup of coffee together. Walk the dog at the end of the night. Read a story with your kids," she said. "Make the most of the time that you have. We are all pulled in so many directions, so make sure that, whichever one you are focusing on, you're present."

Prinze weighed in on the secret to their happy marriage on Australia's The Kyle & Jackie O Show in 2022.

 "I hate a mess. If something is dirty, I clean it. I do the dishes while I'm cooking so there's less s--- to look at," he joked.

He added, "My room is spotless, my car is spotless. I'm one day late for a haircut and I'm going crazy."

The actor added that he does the laundry and cooks all their family’s meals. 

"My mom was a chef and I learned how to cook, and I married someone who couldn't cook," he said. "So I'm necessary. She needs me to live and sustain herself."
