She said: “Which is why I am grateful for this chance to able to publicly celebrate and compliment him.”
Elsewhere in her speech, Sophie said Edward has been her guide, and added: “Whatever he is doing he gives 150 percent of himself, and if all else fails he gives any energy he has left out to our exhausted dogs or laying waste to the garden.”
Wiping away tears again, the duchess ended her speech by saying: “So, here’s to you my darling Edward and may I, along with all your family and so many friends, and so many others wish you the happiest of birthdays.”
The couple were snapped embracing with both of them visibly emotional.
