With the whole of the UK going into coronavirus lockdown, huge milestone celebrations have been called off! From weddings to big family gatherings, a whole host of birthday parties have also been cancelled. Here at HELLO!, we take a look at how these celebrities marked their special days with or without their loved ones close by.
Tess Daly
The Strictly Come Dancing host expressed her gratitude after she was treated to a sweet surprise on her 51st birthday, which took place on 29 March during the coronavirus lockdown. Her husband Vernon Kay took to his Instagram page to share a snap from the London Underground, who posted a heartfelt message on their tributes page, All on the Board. "Happy Birthday Tess Daly, we hope your dreams and wishes come true, may your day in isolation be filled with love and fun," the sign read. "We hope you spend the afternoon being spoiled rotten and spend the evening Strictly Come Dancing in the living room. You're a national treasure and you don't look a day over twenty-one."

The message continued: "Modelling and striking poses from Tokyo to Paris and New York, when love's taking over it can turn any serious violence of the summer into sweet harmony; the camera never lies and at heart we are all Children In Need of an LA pool party and a surprise. Wouldn't it be nice if this time tomorrow we could get back to reality."
