Star singer Luis Miguel paid tribute to his mother with an emotional post on Instagram on Mexico's Mother's Day almost four decades following her mysterious disappearance.

The Grammy Award artist shared an old photo Wednesday that showed him and Marcela Basteri embracing and smiling in front of the camera.

However, the 53-year-old Mexican singer did not include a caption.

The post has drawn over 7,000 comments and 540,000 likes from fans, friends and family.

'You are the best example of kindness and dedication,' his brother, Alejandro Basteri, wrote on the post while adding that 'without fear of being wrong I can say that you have been the best mother in the world.'

The post comes more than 30 years after Basteri vanished and her case created international intrigue.
