Supermodel Kate Moss celebrated her 52nd birthday on Friday, receiving a touching and nostalgic tribute from her daughter, Lila Moss. The 23-year-old model shared a rare black-and-white childhood photograph on Instagram, capturing a tender moment with her famous mother in their garden.
A Mother-Daughter Moment
In the sweet throwback snap, a youthful and radiant Kate Moss beams down at a baby Lila as they enjoy quality time together. Lila captioned the post with a heartfelt message, writing: 'Happy birthday mummy!!! I love you the mostest ❤️.' The post quickly drew attention from friends and celebrities.
Vera Ora, mother of singer Rita Ora, commented: 'Happy BD to YOU and to ME my dear Kate', while former Vogue Paris editor Emmanuelle Alt and designer Meg Mathews also added their birthday wishes. The celebration was a true family affair, with Kate's brother, Nick Moss, also paying tribute.
Family Celebrations in Mayfair
Nick Moss, 47, shared a selfie with his sister outside the upscale London Italian restaurant, Cecconi's in Mayfair, where they marked the occasion. He captioned the photo on his Instagram Stories: 'Happy birthday big sis ❤️'. Nick, who runs a Vietnamese street food business called Vietvan, has historically kept a low profile, telling The Sunday Times Style he never wanted to 'piggyback' on his sister's fame.
Kate shares her daughter Lila with magazine editor and ex-boyfriend Jefferson Hack. The couple separated in 2004 but have maintained an amicable relationship, co-parenting their daughter closely over the years.
From Party Girl to Wellness Icon
As she enters her 52nd year, Kate Moss's lifestyle is a world away from her hard-partying '90s persona, which included weathering the 'Cocaine Kate' scandal of 2005. Today, she is known for a disciplined health and wellness regimen that she credits for her youthful appearance.
Kate has adopted several key practices to maintain her look:
- She undertakes three week-long juice cleanses each year, often at the LifeCo wellness resort in Turkey.
- She uses advanced skincare technology, including red-light LED therapy and a Talika Time Control + device.
- She owns a £4,000 Cadillac Pilates reformer machine and works with a personal trainer.
- Her wellness brand, Cosmoss, sells teas, skincare, and a book of positive affirmations.
Kate has also shared some of her more immediate beauty tricks, such as plunging her face into iced water with cucumber slices to depuff, and using gua sha tools for lymphatic drainage. She credits lessons learned from top makeup artists during her early modelling days and now strictly avoids sun exposure on the advice of friend Charlotte Tilbury.
Now a successful businesswoman and enduring fashion icon, Kate Moss's 52nd birthday celebrations highlighted not just her legendary status, but the close family bonds and reinvented, health-focused lifestyle that define her today.
