A tremendous poster of Sabrina Ho welcomed guests to her wonderfully crazy birthday celebration at the Cafe Royal on Monday 12th September, hot on the heels of Saturday night’s revels at Queen Charlotte’s Ball, where she’d been escorted by Archduke Alexander of Austria. The party ran on high octane in the 1st moment every time a whole tray of champagne flew high in the environment into a rousing cheer. Pink champagne was served throughout. Some of Sabrina’s male friends missed the whiskey but said the hot girls were plenty of. They included more than 40 of Sabrina’s British boarding school classmates who studied with her at Queen Margaret’s – and danced available tops with her as soon as the cake arrived. As well as what a cake! Sabrina was required to climb it – at the very least a metre tall, in pink and white with gold roses – to blow out the golden candles. The Oscar Wilde room was packed with her friends as well as their friends until the end – 150 were invited and 230 arrived.
Special guests included Ella Mountbatten: she and her sister Alexandra became all-around Sabrina Ho and her sister Alice when they arrived as debutantes. Spencer Matthews was arm in arm with Sabrina snapping selfies. Sir Henry and girl Keswick came as old friends of Sabrina’s family. Greater hundred years’ ago the Keswick’s were brilliant entrepreneurs taking China by storm: now it’s the turn with the Ho family in Europe. Others arriving at celebrate with Sabrina were Lord and girl Reay, Baroness Denise Kingsmill, Sir Benjamin Slade, Ms Wendy Yu, and Mr and Mrs Dimitri Chandris. This was an event for all those generations: Sabrina closed the dancing in a final waltz with Hon Benedict Kingsmill. Sabrina had insisted on no birthday gifts but sometimes not resist Heineken magnate Michel de Carvalho’s offer of his personal iPhone case while they dined at the after party with Ms Aida Aliyeva and the Keswick’s.
Music is made by DJ and composer The actual Tuesday Weld (aka Stephen Coates) who also MC’d the evening. It’s been said if philosopher Alain de Botton were ever to join a band, Stephen’s is the one. The birthday song was played by pianist Brigitte Subkov in the Royal College of Music: Sabrina insisted on the English version only, like a celebration of not just her birthday, but her passion for London, her life here and her many close friendships in the West. But the congratulations originated all around the globe. Top Chinese actress Angela Baby and Paris Hilton sent special videos wishing Sabrina every success and happiness.
