The Duchess of Sussex Meghan Markle is about to hit a milestone birthday: 40.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Though there were reports of an A-list party being planned for the occasion at her and Prince Harry\u2019s Montecito home, apparently, the reality of their plans is a stark contrast.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Instead of having a party with 65 guests organized by celebrity wedding planner Colin Cowie, and an Instagrammable tiered \u2018naked\u2019 cake from Posies & Sugar (which Prince Harry was said to have been entrusted with procuring), Markle and Prince Harry’s day will be a lot more low-key.<\/span>\u00a0Yes, everything, including the very specific cake details, was just gossip.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Furthermore, despite the couple\u2019s close relationship with the Obamas, Markle, who turns 40 on the same day Obama celebrates his 60th birthday, and Harry won\u2019t be attending the former president’s party at his Martha\u2019s Vineyard home over the weekend. <\/span><\/p>\n

Instead, of being party-goers or planners, they are actually <\/i>just staying at home with their two children for the day.<\/span><\/p>\n

Of course, the decision not to celebrate with friends, family and A-listers is very likely two-fold: the couple just gave birth to their second child, a baby daughter Lilibet Diana, in June\u2014they are currently both on maternity leave\u2014and, importantly, California is currently surging again with Covid-19 cases.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
