Royal news – live: Kate shares rare touching message to William with new photo to mark birthday
Prince William is today celebrating his 42nd birthday and the Princess of Wales has shared a touching message to mark the occasion.
Taking to the official Kensington Royal social media accounts, she shared a new picture of the heir to the throne appearing to jump on a sandy beach with his three young children.
Kate Middleton wrote: “Happy birthday Papa, we all love you so much! Cx”
It is not known if the Princess personally took the sweet picture.
The touching message comes after Kate made her first public appearance of the year on the Buckingham Palace balcony at Trooping the Colour last weekend.
Commentators could not help but remark on how sparse the family looked compared to previous years.
Following the appearance, royal expert Richard Eden claimed that William plans to slim down the Monarchy even more when he takes the throne.
Writing for the MailOnline, he cited a source who said: “When the older members of the family retire, His Royal Highness won’t be inviting anyone else to become working royals.”
Prince William was born on this day in 1982 and his birth was a first for the royal family.
This is because he was the first-ever heir to the throne born in a hospital instead of a palace.
At the time of his birth, Princess Diana was just 21 and the now-King Charles was 33.
Prince William was born on this day in 1982 just before 10 pm.
Buckingham Palace shared the happy news in a statement placed on a gilded easel outside the palace.
It read: “Her Royal Highness the Princess of Wales was today safely delivered of a son at 9.03 pm.
“Her Royal Highness and her son are both doing well.”
Prince William’s 42nd birthday has been rung in by Westminster Abbey in London.
The famous church is also coincidentally the location of his 2011 marriage to Kate Middleton and the 1981 marriage of William’s parents, King Charles and Princess Diana.
Taking to Twitter (X), the abbey wrote: “Wishing The Prince of Wales a very happy birthday today! We’ll be ringing the Abbey bells at 1pm to celebrate.
“His Royal Highness is [pictured] here with Members of the Royal Family enjoying a performance during this year’s Commonwealth Day service at the Abbey in March.”
🚨 BREAKING: A survivor has come forward in a powerful new interview with Midas Touch Network, sharing previously unheard personal experiences related to the long-running Jeffrey Epstein case. The conversation, handled with care and restraint, is already drawing widespread attention online. Rather than making sweeping accusations, the survivor focused on first-hand perspective, emotional impact, and unanswered questions that have lingered for years. Viewers say the account was calm but deeply unsettling, shedding light on how silence, power, and fear shaped what happened behind closed doors. This isn’t sensationalism—it’s testimony. As clips circulate and reactions grow, many are calling the interview a reminder of why transparency matters and why these stories continue to resonate. The discussion is far from over, and the public response is only beginning to build. 👇👇

🚨 BREAKING: Donald Trump has just been rocked by what insiders are calling his worst poll result ever, as a once-reliable Texas Republican stronghold stuns the nation by flipping blue. The shock numbers have sent tremors through conservative circles and triggered open panic among Trump allies. For decades, this seat was considered untouchable—a symbol of red-state dominance. But the latest polling tells a very different story. Voters appear to be breaking sharply away, signaling frustration, fatigue, and a growing appetite for change that party leaders failed to anticipate. This isn’t just a bad poll—it’s a warning siren. Strategists are scrambling, donors are nervous, and the narrative of “safe red territory” is collapsing in real time. If Texas can wobble, nothing is guaranteed anymore. The political map is shifting fast—and the fallout is only just beginning. 👇👇
