Princess Kate Middleton will soon be ringing in her 43rd birthday and a source says Prince William and their children are pulling out all the stops to make it as special and family-oriented as possible.

Kate Middleton is celebrating a big milestone this week, and after the year she's had, her husband Prince William is planning on making her birthday celebration extra special this year. Middleton is turning 43 on Thursday, January 9, and William wants to "spoil" his wife after her cancer battle.

According to Kate Middleton's college roommate, Prince William paid £200 in a charity auction to win a date with her even before the 2002 fashion show that was believed to have sparked their decades-long romance.

Looks like Kate Middleton and Prince William might be turning over a new leaf in 2025. Emphasis on might be, since when it comes to the royals, things are always a bit hazy. That said, there's a new report from Closer (via The Sun) claiming that William and Kate could renew their vows and even go on a second honeymoon in 2025.

As she continues her return to public life, Kate Middleton joked “I seem to have lost my family!” after she fell behind Prince William, Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis on the royal family’s traditional Christmas Day walkabout.

Despite having arguably one of their hardest years, which saw both King Charles and Kate Middleton diagnosed with cancer, Prince William and wife Catherine have fondly looked back on 2024, sharing a selection of their favourite photos to mark New Year's.
