"Thank you for being the strongest human in the world," she wrote.

"You are the best brother and continue to make Dad so proud. Love you so much, Happy Birthday Jacko."

Brooke, Jackson and younger sister Summer farewelled their dad in March last year.

Shane tragically died from a suspected heart attack on March 4 at the age of 52, after being found unresponsive in a villa in Thailand where he was staying with friends.

In October last year, Jackson revealed how he honed in on his health while grieving the loss of his father.

"This year I could've easily gone downhill," he wrote on Instagram. "I could've drank a lot of alcohol, gambled too much, quit the gym, ate s--t food and not socialised. Be miserable."

But he didn't. Instead, he used his trauma as "energy for life".

"I surrounded myself with good people, went to the gym EVERY DAY, drank water, swam, laughed a lot and was consistent. 1 day at a time," Jackson wrote.
