And the 40-year-old even received messages from Alex's celebrity friends, including Ore Oduba, who said: "Happy birthday that man!!! big hug from all of us Charlie!!! X"
Alex and Charlie met in 2012 and became engaged in 2015, announcing the news on her hit BBC show. The Welsh bride married New Zealander Charlie in a magical ceremony at Cardiff Castle on New Year's Eve in 2016.

"I'd told myself not to let it pass in a blur, because it really is quite overwhelming and nerve-racking. But I really did love it, seeing all my friends' faces. And then once I held hands with Charlie, I thought, 'We're right.'"

In January 2017 the couple welcomed their first child, a baby boy which they named Ted. The star recently spoke out about the first weeks of motherhood, saying they were "hellish".
Taking to Twitter to tell fans about her new book, Winging it!, the star confessed that she may have overshared. When one new mum said she wished she'd been told everything "warts and all", Alex replied: "The first few weeks are pretty hellish to be fair, but week 6 it felt a lot better. The book talks about the whole of the first year. Postpartum stuff/relationship stuff... all the grim bits as well as the good stuff so could be ideal for you. At least we're all in it together x."
