A massive poster of Sabrina Ho welcomed guests to her wonderfully crazy birthday celebration in the Cafe Royal on Monday 12th September, hot about 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 from your primary moment when a whole tray of champagne flew full of the environment to some rousing cheer. Pink champagne was served throughout. Several of Sabrina’s male friends missed the whiskey but said the girls were plenty of. They included over 40 of Sabrina’s British boarding school classmates who studied with your ex at Queen Margaret’s – and danced shared tops with your ex following the cake arrived. And just what a cake! Sabrina had to climb it – no less than a metre tall, in white and pink with gold roses – to fly out the golden candles. The Oscar Wilde room was packed with her friends in addition to their friends until the end – 150 were invited and 230 turned up.
Special guests included Ella Mountbatten: she and her sister Alexandra became all-around Sabrina Ho and her very own sister Alice after they came out as debutantes. Spencer Matthews was arm in arm with Sabrina snapping selfies. Sir Henry and Lady Keswick came as old friends of Sabrina’s family. Greater than a hundred years’ ago the Keswick’s were brilliant entrepreneurs taking China by storm: now it’s the turn in the Ho family in Europe. Others going to celebrate with Sabrina were Lord and Lady Reay, Baroness Denise Kingsmill, Sir Benjamin Slade, Ms Wendy Yu, and Mr and Mrs Dimitri Chandris. It was a celebration for those generations: Sabrina closed the dancing within a final waltz with Hon Benedict Kingsmill. Sabrina had insisted on no birthday gifts but may not resist Heineken magnate Michel de Carvalho’s offer of his personal iPhone case since they dined in the after party with Ms Aida Aliyeva and the Keswick’s.
Music was made by DJ and composer The Real Tuesday Weld (aka Stephen Coates) who also MC’d the night. It’s been postulated that when philosopher Alain de Botton were ever to become listed on a band, Stephen’s will be the one. The birthday song was played by pianist Brigitte Subkov from your Royal College of Music: Sabrina insisted about the English version only, like a celebration of not merely her birthday, but her appreciation for London, her lifetime here and her many close friendships in the western world. However the congratulations originated all over the world. Top Chinese actress Angela Baby and Paris Hilton sent special videos wishing Sabrina every success and happiness.
