Betty White planning to feed two ducks on 99th birthday

Betty White reveals that she plans to mark her 99th birthday this weekend by feeding two ducks.

Betty White has revealed that her 99th birthday plans include feeding two duck visitors at her California home.

The entertainment industry legend hits the milestone birthday on Sunday but is planning a quiet affair due to the ongoing seriousness of the coronavirus pandemic.

While she has been isolating, White - a known animal lover - has agreed a deal to bring The Pet Set, her 1970s series about celebrities and their pets, to streaming services later this Spring.

Speaking to ET this week, White said: "You probably didn't ask, but I'll tell you anyway.

"What am I doing for my birthday? Running a mile each morning has been curtailed by COVID, so I am working on getting The Pet Set re-released, and feeding the two ducks who come to visit me every day."

Once coronavirus lockdown lifts and she is cleared to return to work, White has already lined up her first job, playing the tough trainer of would-be Santas in a new Christmas movie.
