Arthur and his little ones Blake, two, and 11-month-old Blu, started off his birthday with a bang this morning.
They surprised Brian with some party balloons and a delicious cake this morning.
Blake looked delighted wearing some birthday costume goggles as she blew out the candles on the cake.
The Kildare native made sure to look the part on his big day and got his hair done by a professional.
Brian looked dapper wearing a black knit top and an orange blazer as he headed to Dublin’s food festival, Taste, in Merrion Square.
The former 98FM host came onto his Instagram Stories while walking into the event and said: “Thank you all so much for your gorgeous messages. It means a lot.
“I’ve got to do a thing here at Taste and then I’m heading for some food and some drinks.”
Brian met up with his Six O’Clock Show co-host Katja Mia while at the festival and the pair looked like they had a ball together.
In a hilarious clip, Katja said: “Who’s feeling a bit loose?”
Brian added: “One of us drank matcha and water and one of us had a gallon of champagne. But which one?”
The dad-of-two kept the celebrations going and went for a delicious meal in Powerscourt Hotel in Enniskerry with his hubby Arthur.
Arthur made sure to add an extra sprinkle of love with a heartfelt message this morning.
Taking to Instagram, the celebrity dancer penned: “Dear Dada @bprdowling. Happy 47th Birthday! You are the heart of our home, the calm in our chaos (well, most of the time!), and the laughter in our everyday lives.
“Today, we celebrate YOU—your strength, endless kindness, and love that never requires anything in return. You have built a beautiful life around us.”
SPECIAL TRIBUTE
Arthur shared that this year’s birthday felt extra special, as it marked little Blu’s very first time celebrating alongside them since her birth last June.
The doting husband gushed: “Here’s to 47 years of living fully, loving deeply, and laughing loudly. We look forward to many more years with you by our side, cheering you on always.”
The TV star finished off his lovely tribute by saying: “We love you so, so much, more than words can express. Have the BEST day. Now, let’s eat that cake, it would be rude not to!”
Arthur shared a heartwarming series of photos showing him, Brian, Blake, and Blu gathered around their kitchen table, surrounded by birthday balloons and a stunning cake.
Brian beamed at the camera while cradling Blake and Blu on his lap as Arthur grinned proudly holding up colourful decorations in the background.
