Arthur Matthews, the birthday boy, is the eldest child of Pippa Matthews and her hedge fund manager husband James Matthews.
The couple, who reside on a sprawling estate in the Berkshire countryside, are also parents to Grace, three, and two-year-old Rose.
The Middleton have chosen to live in close proximity to one another.
Pippa’s home is near her parents Carole and Michael Middleton’s residence, as well as her brother James Middleton and his wife Alizee Thevenet’s home.
Meanwhile, Prince William, Kate, and their three children reside at Adelaide Cottage in Windsor, a short drive away from the Middleton family homes.
