The duchess of Cambridge celebrated her 30th birthday yesterday (January 9, 2012). She spent her birthday eve in the public eye, attending the London premiere of the Steven Spielberg film “War Horse,” in Leicester Square, followed by a charity dinner. Wearing an Alice Temperley-designed black, lace gown, Middleton stole the red carpet, as William dutifully protected her from the rain by holding an umbrella. Even the movie’s A-list director, Steven Spielberg, seemed in awe of the Duchess. “I hope I’ll have the opportunity to wish her in person a happy birthday,” he told reporters on the red carpet. Last week, it was reported that Kate Middleton was planning a quiet, low-key celebration for her 30th birthday, contradicting an article in Grazia magazine that suggested her sister (Pippa Middleton) and brother-in-law (Prince Harry) were in fact planning a lavish, ’80s themes party for the Duchess.
