In regards to celebrating her birthday, Kate and William are likely to have enjoyed some family time together with their three children on the Princess' special day.

While Kate has been spotted publicly on her birthday in previous years, she typically spends the day privately, and was reportedly treated to a tea party at home during lockdown on her 39th birthday in 2021.
