Cara Delevingne has shared a cute throwback snap of her and her girlfriend Minke, revealing that the couple has actually known each other for 20 years.
The 30-year-old model and actress took to Instagram on Sunday to wish her partner – who she has understood to have been dating since last summer – a happy birthday.
‘Here’s to 20 years of knowing you,’ she wrote alongside three red hearts on what appeared to be a class picture of a group of kids from the early 2000s.
(The bucket hats are in force, from the first time around.)
The group appeared to be posing after some sort of victory, and Cara drew arrows towards two groups of girls with their arms around each other.
The Carnival Row star was back row in a pink T-shirt with one pal, while Minke was near the front, rocking a navy sweatshirt and with another friend.

‘Happy birthday @minke,’ she wrote underneath the picture, marking the musician turning 32.
Well, two decades of friendship is pretty impressive.
The pair were first linked after being spotted kissing while on holiday together in Portofino, Italy in June.
While neither has publicly opened up much on their relationship, Cara did give a little insight into it when making mention of her girlfriend in a recent interview.
During an appearance on The Kelly Clarkson Show, when quizzed on her plans for Valentine’s Day, she responded: ‘It depends entirely on what I’m doing. Sometimes I do a Galentine’s Day [with my friends].’
She then added: ‘I’ll probably be spending it at home with my dogs and my girlfriend.’
Minke – real name Leah Mason – is a British musician, who initially started making music under her real name with a blues contract in Nashville.
It was then in 2017 that she made the pivot to Minke wit the release of her song Gold Angel.
Supermodel Cara recently dipped her toe into documentary making with Planet Sex, where she explored topics including the orgasm gap between men and women.

She has also previously spoken about how life-changing filming the series was and how it helped her tackle internalised homophobia.
The model and actress, who identifies as queer and gender fluid, worried she was ‘abnormal’ when she was questioning her own identity but is ‘so glad’ she didn’t take her own life because she’s now in a position to help and support other young people struggling with their identity.
