Camilla, the Duchess of Cornwall, is celebrating her 75th birthday marking the occasion with a small family dinner at Prince Charles’ Highgrove estate in southwest England.
The milestone birthday comes at a time when the monarchy, and Camilla’s place in it, are in a generational transition. As the 96-year-old Queen Elizabeth II soldiers on during her twilight years, other members of the royal household are taking on new roles with more responsibilities.
Camilla thanks everyone who wishes happy birthday to her via her Official Instagram account, she wrote,
"Thank you for all your kind messages and well wishes on The Duchess of Cornwall’s 75th birthday today! 🎈"
