''It was an honour to enable them to celebrate their big day together as best we could under the current circumstances.”

Hannah said: “I couldn’t believe it! We haven’t seen each other in a long time so to spend time together on our birthday meant a lot to both of us.”

A huge happy birthday to Hannah from all of us at the Ulster Star! We hope it was a very special day.
