Carole Middleton has reached an
impressive new milestone. The official Instagram account for her business,
Party Pieces, has announced it has reached an impressive 50,000 followers on
the social media site.
In a caption shared on Tuesday, the company said: “Here are
Party Pieces, we love celebrating milestones, and are thrilled to celebrate
reaching 50k followers with you all!”
In honour of the milestone, followers have been asked to enter a
competition. “To mark the occasion, we are giving one lucky follower a £50
voucher to use on an upcoming celebration,” the message continued.
Carole set up her own party supplies business from the Middletons’
family home in Berkshire, distributing leaflets at her daughters’ nursery
school. As the business took off, Carole relocated Party Pieces from a small
start-up unit to a warehouse at Child’s Court Farm in Reading, where it has
been based ever since 1995.

The latest success comes two days after Carole’s daughter, the Duchess of Cambridge, celebrated her 40th birthday. It is not
known how Kate chose to celebrate her birthday, but it was likely a family
occasion at their Norfolk abode, Anmer Hall, with her husband Prince William
and their three children, Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis.

Kate also marked the occasion with royal fans by releasing three
striking images by celebrated fashion photographer Paolo Roversi.
She later took to Twitter to personally thank everyone who had sent her
messages on her birthday: “Thank you for all of your very kind birthday
wishes. And to Paolo and the National Portrait Gallery for these three special
portraits. C.”
