Kate Middleton Shares Gorgeous Photo of Husband Prince William Sitting Alone (Along with a Surprise Announcement)
But the social media post also included a bit of news: Namely, the debut of three of four new Cocker Spaniel puppies—all being cuddled by William—who their beloved dog, Orla, gave birth to last month, per The Sun.
As a reminder, Orla was given to the Wales family by Kate's brother, James Middleton, shortly after the death of their previous dog, Lupo, in 2020. As the puppies gather around the Prince of Wales in the pic, you can also see Orla sweetly hovering in the background.
The caption for birthday tribute read: 'Happy birthday! Love C, G, C, L, Orla and the puppies!' A paw print emoji was included at the end. (According to the BBC, the photo of William was taken in Windsor earlier this month.)

Additional birthday tributes followed: King Charles, via the official Instagram account of the Royal Family, also posted a birthday message for William to Instagram Stories with a pic of the prince sitting alone on a stone wall on the Duchy of Cornwall, a parcel of land he now owns. (The caption read: 'Happy Birthday to the Prince of Wales!')As for how William and his family plans to celebrate? That's TBD. But the pic shared by Kate, their kids and the dogs show a prince that looks relaxed and at ease—not to mention, wearing denim. On the heels of so many formal engagements (Trooping the Colour! Garter Day! Royal Ascot!), we're guessing a low-key celebration is the exact plan he'd prefer.

Grammy-Winning Singer Bursts Into Tears Performing Beloved Song for First Time in 8 Years
Grammy-Winning Singer Bursts Into Tears Performing Beloved Song for First Time in 8 Years originally appeared on Parade. One of the most successful artists of the past decade is English musician Ed Sheeran. The star has broken records across the world and sold hundreds of millions of albums. Releasing his first album in 2011, Sheeran defined much of the pop sound that came out during the 2010s, with songs like "Shape of You," "Photograph," and "Love Yourself." Sheeran has always been known for some emotional songs, with his more stripped back style connecting with fans who resonate with the lyrics of his songs. One such moment happened at a recent concert, with his tune, "Supermarket Flowers." The song is a heavy one for the artist, having been written about the death of his grandmother from his mother's perspective. The song clearly means a lot to people, which must be why a fan suggested it at a concert, leading to this emotional performance. He was just totally overcome, after having not performed the tune for 8 years. What a moving moment, with everyone sharing the emotions the song brings. This didn't stop at those who were in attendance the concert, as many fans who watched this video shared their emotions with the song in the comments. "I've always been grateful "Supermarket Flowers" isn't on the set list. I used it to make my mum's memorial video for her funeral. She died about a month after it came out." "It's a dream to hear this live. But I'd be an absolute mess…" "This was released the year my mum passed. I've never been able to listen to it without sobbing." The song has touched a lot of people, bringing them together over the shared experience of loss. Music is incredibly good at capturing emotion, and becoming a special thing for so many.🎬SIGN UP for Parade's Daily newsletter to get the latest pop culture news & celebrity interviews delivered right to your inbox🎬 Grammy-Winning Singer Bursts Into Tears Performing Beloved Song for First Time in 8 Years first appeared on Parade on Jul 1, 2025 This story was originally reported by Parade on Jul 1, 2025, where it first appeared.

Pop Singer ‘Can't Remember' How Many Abortions She's Had
Pop Singer 'Can't Remember' How Many Abortions She's Had originally appeared on Parade. Lily Allen did not hold back while reflecting on her history of abortions. The 'Smile' singer, 40, spoke candidly about the topic during the Monday, June 30, episode of her 'Miss Me?' podcast with cohost Miquita Oliver. 'I have an IUD now, I think I'm on my third, maybe fourth, and I just remember, before that was a complete disaster area,' Allen said. 'I'd get pregnant all the time.' When Oliver expressed her surprise, Allen jokingly began singing to the tune of Frank Sinatra's song 'My Way.' 🎬 SIGN UP for Parade's Daily newsletter to get the latest pop culture news & celebrity interviews delivered right to your inbox 🎬 'Abortions, I've had a few, but then again, I can't remember exactly how many,' she quipped. With a laugh, Allen confirmed that she could not recall the actual number of abortions she'd had in the past. 'I can't remember,' she said. 'I think maybe, like … I want to say four or five.' Allen then recounted one of her previous experiences with abortion. 'I remember once getting pregnant and the man paying for my abortion and me thinking it was so romantic,' she shared. 'I'll tell you how romantic it was — I don't think he texted me after!' Oliver, for her part, believed she'd also had 'about five' abortions, agreeing that getting an IUD 'really changed' her life because she 'stopped getting abortions.' 'The pattern would be: Unfortunately, get pregnant, like, not want to be, have an abortion, then while I was sedated in said abortion, they'd give me a coil,' Oliver recalled, noting that she 'can't quite remember' why she ultimately got the IUD removed each time. This is not the first time Allen has been forthcoming about the matter. In 2022, she received support from fans after revealing that she'd had an abortion in the past. 'I wish people would stop posting examples of exceptional reasons for having abortions,' she wrote via her Instagram Story at the time while advocating for the pro-choice movement. 'Most people I know, myself included, just didn't want to have a f-----g baby. And that is reason enough! We don't have to justify it.' Allen now shares two daughters, Ethel, 13, and Marnie, 12, with ex-husband Sam Cooper.
