Sophie, the Duchess of Edinburgh, is set to receive a special birthday party from King Charles and Queen Camilla at Clarence House, a former butler has revealed.
According to former royal butler Grant Harrold, the King and Queen would do their best to make the day memorable for Sophie a day after posting delightful snaps of her on their official Instagram account.
Harrold, who worked for King Charles from 2004 to 2011, revealed that Prince Edward would also make sure his wife feels “special” on her big day as she turns 60.
“Sophie really doesn’t like any fuss and she’s very humble,” he said of Sophie, while speaking with Royal Insider. “She’s very dedicated to her job, her husband, her family and was very dedicated to the late queen.”
“She’s now very dedicated to her brother-in-law,” Harrold continued. “I have no doubt that the king will be planning a birthday party for her probably at Clarence House with as many royals there as possible.”
“Sophie is a really lovely person and is very well loved and respected within the family and with the public. I’m sure she will also be having private celebrations with her own family.
“Everyone will be making a fuss of her.”
The former Royal butler further revealed that Edward, the Duke of Edinburgh, will “make sure she feels very special and it is a real milestone for her.”
“It’s actually hard to believe she’s 60 as she looks so good,” he said, before concluding.
