Sophia Loren recently celebrated her 90th birthday with a special birthday dinner captured in a clip shared by her friend, Giorgio Armani. The Italian star was seen wearing a stunning silver outfit from the Giorgio Armani Privé collection, complemented by a dazzling diamond necklace and earrings. The footage showed her being serenaded with a special rendition of "Happy Birthday" while visibly surprised and delighted at the table.
"A very special 90th birthday celebration for Sophia Loren," Armani wrote while posting the video. Armani posted a vintage black-and-white photo featuring Loren kissing his cheek. Another picture showed her sitting beside the designer while affectionately resting her head on his shoulder.
Loren's milestone came a year after she was hospitalized following a fall at her home in Geneva, Switzerland, in September 2023. The news of her fall was shared on social media, where her close-knit circle of family and friends expressed optimism about her recovery.
During her incident, Loren suffered hip fractures and a femur fracture in her bathroom, necessitating urgent medical intervention. Thankfully, the surgical procedure was successful, paving the way for her rehabilitation.
