Carole Middleton’s birthday celebrations will break with tradition this year as the soon-to-be 68-year-old intends to throw a “bright and bold” party for herself.
Carole Middleton turns 68 this week, Tuesday 31st January 2023. In a post for her party supplies shop, Party Pieces, the businesswoman explained how she’s going to celebrate her birthday and why this year is a little different than others.
The caption of the post on Party Pieces read, “Is it just me or has January flown by? Which means it’s almost my birthday. I often go on vacation for my birthday, but this year I’m bringing the sun over to throw a party with lots of bright and bold colors. If it’s your birthday soon, take a look at my edit on the website for inspiration.
In recent years, the Middleton family has been known to travel to Mustique, a private island in the Caribbean favored by celebrities seeking a vacation away from the public eye. The peak season to visit Mustique is December to April and the Middleton family have been known to flock to this sunny spot to escape the January blues earlier in the year.
Carole’s “bright and bold” party is likely to be attended by her children and grandchildren, including Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis. The Middleton family is believed to have actually gathered in Bucklebury this weekend, but for a much sadder reason.
James Middleton sadly announced last week that his beloved dog, Ella, passed away. Ella was the inspiration behind James’ dog food company and he also credits her with introducing him to his wife Alizee after Ella was on her way to a busy restaurant and the two were able to strike up a conversation.
James is believed to have held a small funeral for Ella this weekend and members of his family have traveled to Bucklebury to support him through this difficult time.

Despite this sad news, Carole’s celebration on Tuesday is likely to lift the spirits of the family. Company supporters were quick to interact with this post from Carole, wishing her a happy birthday. Fans also liked her company’s posts about Valentine’s Day, which is only a few weeks away.
Eagle-eyed followers were quick to spot Carole Middleton’s touching Valentine’s Day tribute on social media, as the grandmother paid tribute to her youngest granddaughter, Rose, in this heartfelt post.
