LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Zac Efron had fans gushing after he posted an adorable birthday tribute to his little sister Olivia.
The 33-year-old Hollywood hunk posted a pair of heartwarming photos to his Instagram on Monday, December 26, showing him holding his two-year-old half-sister -- Olivia is reportedly the daughter of Zac's father David Efron and his second wife Jenny. The 'High School Musical' star captioned the post, "Happy bday Lil sis."

The first picture showed Zac holding his sibling lovingly as she gazed at his mustached face. Olivia's flower headband held her golden curls in place as she marveled at her older brother, who wore a Christmassy green button-up shirt. Zac's hair was clean-cut and appeared lightly styled with gel, resulting in a rugged but effortless look. The 'Baywatch' star flaunted a tanned, holiday glow that accentuated his chiseled features.
Meanwhile, the second picture showed Olivia snuggling into Zac's chest as her big brother clutched her close and kissed her head. Fans couldn't help but fawn at the touching post.
"Will you hold me like this?" one gushed. "How is this man not married yet?!" another wondered. "Can you pls be the father of my children?" someone else quipped.
It's worth noting that Zac is allegedly still single since parting ways with model Vanessa Valladares. The leading man's top priority now appears to be his career as he is working on a number of big projects. The star recently filmed a rom-com for Netflix titled 'The Family Affair' alongside Joey King, 23, and Nicole Kidman, 55. Zac is currently busy filming the wrestling biopic 'The Iron Claw' with Lily James, 33.
The Hollywood A-lister opened up earlier this year about how a past movie role convinced him to take his time before having children. During an appearance on the 'Ellen DeGeneres Show' in May, he spoke about playing a father in 'Firestarter'. “You know what? I think that was a healthy dose to put me off of it for as long as necessary,” he said. “I have a bit more growing to do, probably. I don’t know. Yeah, I don’t know what to say now.” Zac lauded his parents for the lessons they taught him. “I have a healthy respect for parents, very grateful for them all. I love you so much, mom," he added.
The California native said he didn't consider how much work would go into playing a dad on screen. “I didn’t think about it all that much,” he said of remaking the 1984 Stephen King movie. “It was a pretty quick intro to the film — and all the sudden I had this daughter.” He continued, “We had a pretty heavy dad-daughter scene right off the bat [when filming started], and I realized I was drastically underprepared for this part. I didn’t know what I was doing. I thought it would just kind of click, but no, that’s not really the case.” Zac also noted how he had formed a bond with the actress who played his onscreen daughter, Ryan Kiera Armstrong. “Luckily, Ryan is just so sweet. She’s just the coolest and after two days we just had the best bond,” he said at the time, Us Weekly reported.
