Detailed explanation-1: -William Shakespeare died on April 23rd 1616, which was the same day as his birthday, at the age of 52.
Detailed explanation-2: -This means that it’s unlikely that Shakespeare was born any earlier than the previous Sunday, 23 April. Given that three days would be a reasonable interval between birth and baptism, 23 April has therefore come to be celebrated as his birthday. Shakespeare also died on 23 April; in 1616, when he was 52 years of age.
Detailed explanation-3: -William Shakespeare was a renowned English poet, playwright, and actor born in 1564 in Stratford-upon-Avon. His birthday is most commonly celebrated on 23 April (see When was Shakespeare born), which is also believed to be the date he died in 1616.
