This Morning favourite Heather Bone celebrated her 41st birthday surrounded by friends and family today (June 24).
Heather was recently given just three months to live after her breast cancer spread to her brain.
And she captured the hearts of the nation when she appeared on This Morning earlier this week, winning £2,000 for her “farewell party”.
How did Heather Bone celebrate her birthday?
The party appears to have acted as a warm up for Heather’s farewell party which she’s hosting in two parts next month.
She told This Morning hosts Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield that she’ll celebrate with family on July 3 and friends on July 31.

Mum-of-two Heather also revealed her fears that Boris Johnson and the COVID restrictions could force her to cancel her send off.
However, that certainly wasn’t the case with her garden party today.

Soon, a marquee was erected, along with balloons, banners and bunting.

How much has Heather’s GoFundMe page raised now?
Heather’s sister-in-law started the page to raise money for Heather’s big farewell party.

As we went to press, the total raised had almost reached £14,000.
That’ll be one hell of a party, Heather!
