Sir Patrick Stewart, 82, enjoyed his special day with a celebratory horse ride while singing a Bing Crosby song. The X Men actor belted out “Don’t Fence Me In” while donning a straw hat and cowboy boots as he rode along in the countryside.
He teamed his hat and boots with a khaki shirt and jeans, finishing off his equestrian look with a pair of black leather gloves.
