The celebration comes after Kaling revealed in June that she gave birth to another daughter Anne earlier this year.

\"In late February I gave birth to my daughter, Anne,\" she wrote in the caption of an Instagram post at the time to mark her 45th birthday. \"She's the best birthday present I could've ever imagined.\"

\"When things are hard, whenever I veer towards cynicism, my three kids are such a great reminder of the pure joy in my life,\" she added. \"I'm so lucky I live in a place where I could do this by myself, on my own timeline. Thanks for all the birthday wishes!\"

In July, she shared a glimpse of her newborn daughter in one of the photos from her Fourth of July celebration post on Instagram.

In addition to Spencer and Anne, Kaling is also a mom to daughter Katherine, whom she welcomed in 2017.

In 2021, she opened up in an interview with \"Good Morning America,\" sharing that she feels \"so much more happy and confident after having children.\"

\"In each subsequent year of my life, I'm just feeling happier and happier, and I am amazed by that,\" she said at the time.
