Madeleine McCann's parents have shared a touching message to mark their daughter's milestone 21st birthday.
On their official Find Maddie Campaign Facebook page, Kate and Gerry McCann wrote: "Happy 21st Birthday Madeleine. Still missing. Still missed. Still looking."
The message was shared alongside a photo of Madeleine as a three-year-old - one of the last photos before she went missing while on holiday with her family.
Hundreds have commented on the post, sharing birthday wishes and messages of hope for a "miracle".
"Ah man, this brought tears to my eyes. What a nightmare. I think we've all probably be thinking and praying a little more for Maddie and her family today," one person commented.
"Still in our thoughts, still in our search, still holding you close to us all. Happy 21st x," another said.
In 2007, Madeleine disappeared from her parents' holiday apartment in Praia da Luz, in Portugal, triggering a large missing person investigation.
At the time Madeleine's parents Kate and Gerry were put officially under suspicion by Portugal police for their daughter's disappearance. They were eating nearby with friends when the tot disappeared from the apartment.
However, the parents have since received an apology from Portuguese police for the way they handled the three-year-old's disappearance.
Christian Brueckner, a convicted paedophile, is the main suspect in the case which has for years captured global headlines.
He is currently serving a seven-year prison sentence in Germany for raping a 72-year-old woman in the Algarve region of Portugal in 2005 - the same area Madeleine went missing.
And his "partner in crime", a man named Ralph H, was being sought by police as he may have information about the disappearance.
Now, 17 years after Madeleine McCann disappeared, more than $400,000 of new funding has been approved for the police investigation.
British media have revealed Scotland Yard had approved the new funding and report the total sum spent on the case is now close to NZ$28 million.
