HGTV star Ty Pennington celebrated his 60th birthday on Friday, October 19, and marked the occasion by sharing a steamy shirtless photo taken by his wife, Kellee Merrell.

The Extreme Makeover: Home Edition alum took to his Instagram page, where he posted a photo of himself lying on a bed wearing nothing but a pair of beaded necklaces. “Thirst trapping all the way into #60 because why not, right?!” he wrote in the caption.

“A follower did tell me recently that I don’t have much time left so consider this my official petition to rebrand 60 to… #sexty ,” Pennington continued. “No but seriously, feeling incredibly grateful and excited for what this next year (and decade) will bring #seniordiscount #thisissixty #agingisagift #Tyturnssixty #bluesteel.”

Fans and friends jumped into the comments to compliment Pennington and share their happy birthday messages, including Love It or List It star Hilary Farr.
