A woman celebrating her birthday at a seafood restaurant got the perfect present after finding a priceless PEARL inside a mussel.
Paige Hawkins had been dining at The Quayside, in Stourport, with a large group of family and friends to celebrate her 29th birthday last week.
The mum-of-two said her fiancé Jimmy Lee, 30, bit into one of the mussels they had ordered to share and found "something hard" inside.
He pulled it out of his mouth ready to complain to waiters only to discover it was actually a rare natural pearl.
Jimmy gave it to his partner, who said it was the perfect gift for her birthday, which she now plans to have valued and turned into a necklace.

00:00I'm Paige Hawkins. I recently dined here at the Quayside in Stourport on Severn and
00:06me and my fiancé found a pearl in a mussel. The owner came over and had a
00:12look and we were all very shocked. It's quite obviously a pearl. They turn
00:18out 25 kilograms of mussels a week and never has one ever been found. So once
00:26we get it valued we are going to put it in a piece of jewellery, hopefully in
00:29a necklace I was hoping.
