Confirming she spoke to her mum on the phone on her actual birthday, she spoke to the camera about the mix-up. "Princess said: "I did speak to my mum today, she called me. "I thought she had forgot my birthday because, basically, she messaged me... it has actually gone everywhere online. "But she had posted for my birthday on Friday.
