Delta Goodrem turns 31!

Australia's sweetheart hit the big 3-1 today!
Delta Goodrem

She’s Australia’s sweetheart, with a heart (and a voice) of gold, and she’s been living her life in the spotlight for years.

And it hasn’t always been a picturesque life, either.

Diagnosed with Hodgkin’s lymphoma at just 18 in 2003, Delta put her life on hold to battle cancer, with all of Australia at her back, and went on to front a slew of prolific research and prevention charities for young cancer sufferers.

Known for her heart-felt songs and her incredible voice, Delta has been a strong voice for Australian talent.

Today, after living her life in the spotlight for the better part of her life, Delta has turned the big 3-1.

Surrounded by love, with a new career highlight on the horizon with her starring role in Cats, and more beautiful than ever, Delta is set for her biggest year yet.

Happy birthday, Delta!
