Princess of Wales Gifted Thoughtful Present for Her Mother’s Milestone Birthday
Princess Catherine received an unexpected and touching surprise during her recent royal engagement in Wales.
While visiting Corgi, a renowned textiles manufacturer known for its luxury socks and knitwear, the Princess of Wales was presented with a special gift—not for herself, but for her mother, Carole Middleton, who is set to celebrate her 70th birthday on February 2.
Kate, 43, graciously accepted a cream zip-up cashmere cardigan for herself, while Carole was gifted a navy cashmere wrap.
Expressing her gratitude, Catherine responded warmly: “That’s so sweet of you, thank you, I wasn’t expecting it,” as reported by Hello!.
Birthdays hold a special place in the Middleton family. Carole, the founder of the successful party supply business Party Pieces, has previously shared how her children played a role in the company’s early days.
"Pippa wrote our ‘Party Times’ blog, James did the cakes when he first left school, and Catherine developed our first birthday and baby category," she revealed in an interview with Sheer Luxe.
While details of Carole’s milestone birthday celebration remain private, it is likely that the family will mark the occasion at Bucklebury Manor, her longtime home with husband Michael Middleton.
