LINDA Nolan celebrated her 64th birthday surrounded by her nearest and dearest this week.
The singer – who was diagnosed with incurable cancer five years ago – beamed as she posed with a cake at her bash.
Linda told her followers: “Will they still need me, will they still feed me, when I’m 64? ???? Well I had one cake for me and another for me!
“Thank you all so much for the love and wishes… Currently nursing the mother of all hangovers, but feeling very blessed to have seen another birthday.”
Linda was diagnosed with stage three breast cancer in 2005 and given the all-clear the next year.

But in March 2017, she was diagnosed with secondary breast cancer which was identified after it spread to her hip, following a fall.
Doctors confirmed they could see no cure - and in May 2020 that it had also spread to her liver.
She previously told The Sun how she enjoys teasing her famous loved ones, including Loose Women’s Coleen.
Linda said: “I don’t mean to be morbid but sometimes I do wind my sisters up. If they say they can’t be here for my birthday I’ll say, ‘Well, that’s all right, but if it’s my last, don’t feel guilty’.
“In a way, it’s given me a sense of freedom. I now know what is important.
“I don’t know how long I am going to be here so I am going to make the most of the time I have left. Hopefully it will be many years to come but it may not be.”
