HAPPY BIRTHDAY KATE

WOMAN - UK

January 12, 2026

I don't know about you, but I refuse to make New Year's resolutions. I prefer to turn over the proverbial new leaf in either spring (when everything bursts into life, hoorah!), or in autumn with the start of the new school year.

The Princess of Wales is the same. Instead of focusing on new challenges, she told me she prefers to use this time of year to reflect on gratitude and be thankful for all her blessings.

Perhaps it's because she also celebrates her birthday in the new year (happy birthday for 9 January, Kate!).

These past couple of years have been very tough for her and I know she loves her birthday surrounded by friends and family; normally at Anmer Hall if the children's schedule and return to school near Windsor allows it.

I have been very struck by how her confidence in her role and also her personal life has grown since her cancer recovery.

ASK US ANYTHING

I'm single, and for ages I've had difficulty around sex with new partners. At first, I was just uncomfortable with penetration, but now it's painful, and I sometimes bleed. My best friend has been really great, encouraging me to relax and try different positions. But none of that's helping, and now she's saying I should see a doctor. But do I really need to? I'd rather sort this out for myself.
