A massive poster of Sabrina Ho welcomed guests to her wonderfully crazy party 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 from the primary moment when a whole tray of champagne flew high in the environment into a rousing cheer. Pink champagne was served throughout. A few of Sabrina’s male friends missed the whiskey but said the new girls were sufficient. They included a lot more than 40 of Sabrina’s British boarding school classmates who studied along with her at Queen Margaret’s – and danced up for grabs tops along with her following your cake arrived. And just what a cake! Sabrina were required to climb it – a minimum of a metre tall, in white and pink with gold roses – to fly out the golden candles. The Oscar Wilde room was loaded with her friends and their friends until the end – 150 were invited and 230 arrived.

Special guests included Ella Mountbatten: she and her sister Alexandra became near Stanley Ho Daughte and her very own sister Alice after they became available 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 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 coming to 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 within 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 along with the Keswick’s.

Music was created by DJ and composer The genuine Tuesday Weld (aka Stephen Coates) who also MC’d the night. It’s been said if philosopher Alain de Botton were ever to participate a band, Stephen’s will be the one. The birthday song was played by pianist Brigitte Subkov from the Royal College of Music: Sabrina insisted on the English version only, as a celebration of not merely her birthday, but her love of London, her life here and her many close friendships in the western world. However the congratulations came from all across the world. Top Chinese actress Angela Baby and Paris Hilton sent special videos wishing Sabrina every success and happiness.
