Kate Middleton appears to be the British queen as she’s being celebrated across London on her big day.

The Princess turned 44 on Friday, January 9, receiving greetings and best wishes from her fans and royal relatives, but the most iconic celebration took place at her and William’s wedding venue.

The London’s most iconic venue, where the Waleses got married on April 29, 2011, sent a hearwarming message to Princess Catherine.

Westminster Abbey surprised Britons as it rang its bells to celebrate the special occasion of the much-loved royal.

The Abbey’s social media account said: “The Abbey bells are ringing out to celebrate the birthday of HRH The Princess of Wales.”

The message continued: “Our bell ringers are ringing 344 changes of Erin Caters followed by 544 changes of Spliced Surprise Royal.”

Her and William’s ans lost patience and dropped hearts with comments, with one saying: “Beautiful! Happy Birthday, Princess Catherine! Stay healthy.”

“Sooo beautiful…bell ringing gets right at the core our hearts and directs our thinking toward God…so perfect a way to celebrate HRH Catherine,” another dropped the comment.

In addition, a fan wrote: “Those bells sound magnificent!

“Nothing more lovely to hear than church bells ringing out. Happy birthday to the wonderful Princess of Wales!”

Kensington Palace led celebrations on Friday morning by releasing the final instalment of the Mother Nature video series – Winter.

Princess Kate is being celebrated for her “quiet strength” as she marks her 44th birthday.

In a touching tribute shared on Friday, January 9, the Welsh Guards praised the Princess of Wales for her enduring support of the Armed Forces community, highlighting the impact she continues to have as Colonel-in-Chief.

The regiment honoured Kate’s “warmth, dedication and quiet strength,” noting that these qualities “continue to inspire countless people across the country.”

In their message, they underscored her long-standing commitment to those who serve, writing: “Through her support of service families, veterans, and causes close to our hearts, she consistently demonstrates compassion, resilience and a deep understanding of duty.”

The tribute closed with birthday wishes and gratitude “for her continued support of the nation and those who serve it,” signed off with the Welsh motto “Cymru Am Byth.”

The message comes amid a busy period for the Welsh Guards, who remain closely linked to Prince William. The Prince of Wales, who serves as colonel of the regiment, attended their Christmas celebrations at Windsor Barracks last month. During the visit, he personally helped serve dinner to members of the First Battalion and spent time socialising with troops in the Sergeants’ Mess, catching up on their work since his previous visit.

In recent years, the regiment has played a prominent role in major royal milestones, including the funeral of Queen Elizabeth II, the Coronation of King Charles III, and Trooping the Colour in 2023. Their tribute to Kate reflects a bond rooted in service, respect, and shared duty.

Meghan Trainor’s husband, Daryl Sabara, seems to have a surprising response to the Ashley Tisdale mom group fiasco, as he shared a neutral opinion.

The 33-year-old actor cleared the air by saying, “No drama over here, just trying to keep the kids happy,” soon after Trainor herself appeared to mock Tisdale in a TikTok video.

The Spy Kids star even expressed concern for the High School Musical star, after her essay in The Cut went viral, which detailed her experience of alienation in a group of fellow moms.

“I don’t really know what’s going on. I hope she’s okay though,” Sabara told TMZ on Thursday, January 8.

This comes after the singer shared a video clip on TikTok with the text, “Me finding out about the apparent mom group drama,” which showed her sitting at a desk while her song, Still Don’t Care played in the background.

Trainor concluded her shady response with three tea emojis in the caption.

The Made You Look hitmaker is not the only alleged mom involved in the mom group drama, but Mandy Moore and Hilary Duff are also among Tisdale’s former friends, whom she recently unfollowed.
