The broadcaster took to Instagram today to share some snaps with fans, which saw her pose with pals for selfies and serenaded with a delicious-looking cake.

Hosted by Bucks Fizz’s manager Nicola Hill, Nevs Models director Paul Cavalier was also in attendance.

In her caption, she wrote: “What an EPIC birthday dinner ! Friends are my world … Thank you #nicholahill @brunotonioliofficial #laurensilverman @cavpaul #birthday #celebrate #friends #blessed.”

The comments section was filled with well-wishes from Lizzie’s celeb pals, with Denise Welch writing, “Gorgeous,” and Charlene White adding, “Happy birthday darling!! xx.”

TalkTV presenter Danielle Nicholls said, “Happy Birthday beautiful lady!!!” while Vanessa Feltz chimed in with, “Happy birthday beautiful girl.”

Anthea Turner, who appeared to be enjoying a sun-soaked break, rounded off the messages, saying, “Happy Birthday beautiful The tortoises here in The Galapagos send their love they’re over 100 !!”

Lizzie is a socialite, television personality, and the ex-wife of footballer Jason Cundy.

Her ex-husband played for Chelsea, Tottenham and Portsmouth during his career.

She recently told how two men tried to break into her home before crashing their getaway car.

Lizzie had been in the bath when the pair tried to force their way into her house.

In a post on Instagram, she said: “So this happened last night.

“After a lovely dinner with a friend, I was taking a bath and heard a huge bang and noise downstairs.

“Someone sounded like they were trying to get in my house. Luckily a passing farmer saw someone lurking around and thought it was suspicious and called the police immediately.

“Thankfully the police came around in minutes to my home but the two men drove off into my fence with such speed they overturned their car as you can see from the photo above.

“They then ran off into the night and the police couldn’t catch them.

“I just want to say a huge thank you to Hampshire police who came over so quickly and stayed with me. The police were amazing.

“This is happening way to often especially in rural areas. We all need to look after each other.

“Thankfully someone did for me. If anyone knows anything please contact Hampshire police.

“I’m felling very blessed today I wasn’t hurt or anyone else. Keep safe.”
