By DAILY MAIL REPORTER

Private: The Palace has said Kate will celebrate her birthday on Monday with a quiet, low-key event

The Duchess of Cambridge is to celebrate her 30th birthday with a 'low-key and private' event.
Kate turns 30 on Monday but is not expected to have a lavish party to mark the occasion.
She reaches the milestone after a momentous year that has seen her marry royalty, embark on her first official overseas tour and take on several patronages.

Intimate: Kate will likely spend the day with William and her family - parents Carole and Michael Middleton, brother James and sister Pippa

There had been reports that Prince Harry was planning a big bash for his sister-in-law.
But a St James's Palace spokesman gave a brief statement saying:
'Whatever is planned will be low-key and private.'
It is thought Kate will spend her birthday with William and close family and friends.
The day before her celebrations the duke and duchess will attend the UK premiere of War Horse in London's Leicester Square, where the world's media will be waiting.
William, an RAF search and rescue helicopter co-pilot, is rostered to work next week from his base at RAF Valley in Anglesey.
