Princess Lilibet is celebrating her third birthday today, and her grandfather, King Charles has reportedly sent a thoughtful gift her way according to a royal commentator. The young royal enjoyed a grand birthday celebration at her Montecito residence in California, where her parents Prince Harry and Meghan Markle invited their nearest and dearest round for the special occasion. However, the Royal Family's names were notably absent from the guest list, amidst ongoing tensions, the Mirror reports.
Despite the apparent family rift, Charles has made a point of acknowledging his youngest grandchild on her special day. Speaking to The Mirror, royal expert Tom Quinn revealed: "King Charles had no intention of completely ignoring Lilibet's birthday so he has sent a gift along with a message." Nonetheless, it seems the monarch is holding back a particularly special present for a time when the family feud has finally settled.
Quinn remarked: "He gave Prince George a beautiful hand-made wooden swing with George's name carved on it and he has plans to give something similar to Lilibet but not this year. And not unless and until the family feud dies down." Celebs including Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom are thought to have attended Lilibet's birthday bash.
Tom revealed: "Rather than go for a low-key celebration Harry and Meghan have spent the past weekend enjoying a pre-birthday bash for their daughter Lillibet's third birthday. "Hugely expensive presents have been ruled out but the couple.
