Friends and family gathered for an exclusive party marking the 70th birthday of Princess Margaret.
The sister of Queen Elizabeth II arrived Wednesday at the Ritz hotel in a red Rolls Royce, greeted by her son, Viscount Linley.
Margaret had been using a wheelchair or cane during her public appearances since scalding her legs in a hot bath early last year, but she climbed the six steps to the hotel restaurant unaided.
