Patsy Palmer shares rare family portrait as she marks birthday in Malibu with kids

EastEnders star Patsy Palmer has unveiled a beautiful family portrait as she marked her 49th birthday at her home in Malibu.

The television star - best known for her portrayal of Biana Jackson - revealed she was 'so grateful' for her family as she celebrated her big day before heading out for a lavish dinner.

In the snaps, that Patsy shared with her 355,000 Instagram followers, the mum of four proudly stood in the garden with her kids Fenton, Emilia and Bertie as well as husband Richard Merkell.

Patsy's model daughter Emilia also invited her boyfriend, who also appeared in the family picture taken in front of a stunning ocean setting.

Alongside the snap, Patsy revealed that she was having a 'wonderful birthday' and thanked her loved ones for making her big day so special.

"So grateful. Such a wonderful birthday . Thankyou family for making it so special, Next stop dinner," the actor turned DJ wrote.

Patsy then added a second snap alongside her daughter Emilia, in which the mother and daughter duo pouted in the stunning selfie.

Alongside a host of birthday wishes in which she shared on her Instagram story, Patsy also shared a cute snap next to which she wrote: "Best birthday vibes ever at home with my tribe. love you all so much."

Patsy certainly appears to be living her best life after she decided to permanently make the move from the UK to Malibu, on the West Coast of the US.

The actor has been brushing shoulders with plenty of A-listers as well as sharing lots of sun-drenched snaps on her social media page.

Patsy has completely changed her life as she made the move across the pond in 2014. Her family — including her husband Richard and their children Fenton, Emilia and Bertie — have a wonderful life by the beach in Malibu. However, Patsy's eldest son Charley Palmer currently resides in the UK and was not there for her recent birthday celerbations.

Known for playing feisty Bianca, the actor left the soap in 1999 before going onto enjoy a successful music career.

While she has transformed her life across the pond, Patsy still remains a much-loved figure in the UK showbiz world.

However, just a few months ago, Patsy caused a stir when she stormed off an early morning Good Morning Britain interview after she was dubbed an 'addict'.

Lifestyle guru Patsy stormed off the ITV show as she hung up over Zoom after being labelled "from addict to wellness guru".

She said: "You know what, I don't even want to do this interview, because I don't even want to look what it says at the bottom of that screen.

"So I am just going to switch off, do a real Piers Morgan, and say it's not okay to have 'addict to wellness guru' on the bottom of the screen."

Before storming off she added: ""My issues that I had years ago, that were talked about many years ago, and it's over so I am not going to talk to you, don't worry about it but i don't want to talk to you."

Patsy went on to later apologise to her fans and also took the time to thank those who sent supportive messages and kind words her way.
