A young Duchess of Cambridge has been shown as she partied with her younger siblings James Middleton and Pippa Middleton in a picture posted on her mother Carole’s birthday.
To celebrate the 67th birthday, the party business founded and run by Carole Middleton shared a snap of the “party planner extraordinaire”.
The black and white photograph was posted on the company’s Instagram account on Monday.
It showed a seven-year-old Kate, now 40, in a stripey hat and laughing with her siblings
The image, with Carole in the centre, was shared alongside the caption: “Happiest of Birthdays to the party planner extraordinaire! We hope you have the most magical day.”
Mrs Middleton started the firm in 1987, the year James was born, after she and husband Michael returned to Britain from Jordan where they had worked for British Airways.
It grew quickly and in 1989 she began trading from a warehouse in Hungerford, Berkshire.
Within three years, it was so successful she took over dilapidated barns and sheds at Child’s Court Farm in Yattendon, Berkshire, where the firm remains, employing 40 people and sending out 4,000 orders a week.
