AN 18th birthday is always a memorable occasion but for one lucky Malvern woman hers was more memorable than most after a popular singer sang her Happy Birthday.
Welsh opera star Mark Llewelyn Evans, who recently starred in the Hollywood blockbuster Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows as Don Giovanni, attended Ask restaurant in Malvern to serenade birthday girl Sibyl Beaumont.
The surprise was set up by Sibyl’s family who asked family-friend Mark if he would be willing to attend her birthday party.
Malvern College pupil Sibyl, whose birthday is actually in December, celebrated earlier so she could spend it with school friends from abroad.
She said: “It made my party to have Mark there, especially as my friends are fans. They’ve practically all seen the Sherlock Holmes film.”
Sibyl’s mother, Sarah Beaumont, said: “It was really lovely, it was perfect.
“The staff at the restaurant were thrilled and they were really helpful.”
