Lady Helen Taylor was joined by her closest family and friends at her 60th birthday celebrations last weekend.
The Duke of Kent's daughter was presented with a cake, complete with sparklers, by children, Eloise and Cassius.
Lady Helen's niece, Lady Marina Windsor, shared a glimpse into the glamorous soiree on her Instagram account, according to Tatler.
The gathering took place inside a large marquee, complete with a long dining table for guests, which was decorated with flowers, foliage and tealights.
Lady Helen shares four children with her husband and art dealer, Timothy Taylor – Columbus, 29, Cassius, 27, Eloise, 21, and Estella, 19. They are all behind their mother in the line of succession, who is 47th.
Cassius, who studied art management at Goldsmiths University, runs his own events company, Telltale and loves to DJ in his spare time, while Columbus works as an Associate Director at his father's international gallery.
Lady Helen's children are close to their cousins, Lady Marina, Lady Amelia and Edward Windsor, who are the children of George Windsor, Earl of St Andrews and Sylvana Tomaselli.
