Prince George milestone of reaching double digits is being celebrated at the palace with the release of a fresh portrait. The photograph was taken on the steps of Windsor Castle, featuring the 10-year-old dressed in charming blue checkered collared shirt and slacks. The portrait was made public on Friday, July 21, just one day before Prince George’s official birthday.
Photographer Millie Pilkington captured this snap, marking a departure from the usual tradition of Princess Kate taking her son’s previous birthday photos. Prince George, the firstborn of the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, was welcomed into the world in July 2013. His arrival into the royal family placed him as third in line for the throne, following his father and grandfather, King Charles III.
With the passing of their great-grandmother, Queen Elizabeth II, in September 2022, George and his siblings’ positions in the line of succession shifted. Princess Charlotte (8) and Prince Louis (5) moved up a spot, and they now hold the second, third, and fourth positions, respectively. Following them are their uncle, Prince Harry, along with his two children, Prince Archie (4) and Princess Lilibet (2).
As Prince George has matured, he has taken on the role of an older brother, dutifully caring for his siblings. A source shared exclusive insights in July 2022, describing him as a hardworking young boy, excelling in his studies and showing intelligence beyond his age. He has a protective nature towards his younger siblings, going the extra mile to assist his mother with household chores, often earning him extra time for his electronic devices.
This young prince is also known for his well-grounded and down-to-earth demeanor, as noted by insiders. Sociable and engaging, Prince George enjoys discussing his favorite soccer players and exhibits a love for various sports, including rugby and cricket.
As Prince George celebrates this milestone birthday, the royal family and the public alike join in celebrating the growth and development of this charming future king. The special portrait serves as a cherished memento of this momentous occasion, capturing the essence of Prince George’s journey through the royal spotlight.
Another insider divulged to Us a month later that William and Kate are nurturing their children to be conscious of their privileges and to carry themselves with grace. The young royals are taught not to boast about their positions or develop superiority complexes; instead, they treat their peers with kindness and as equals.
As George celebrates his 10th birthday, he is already making significant appearances within the royal circle. He played a crucial role in his grandfather Charles’ coronation ceremony on May 6, serving as one of the four Pages of Honour. Shortly after the ceremony at Westminster Abbey, George, alongside his parents and siblings, participated in The Big Help Out volunteer event, where Louis enjoyed indulging in several s’mores.
Just a month later, George, Charlotte, and Louis graced the balcony of Buckingham Palace once again for Charles’ inaugural Trooping the Colour ceremony. Throughout the day, the playful siblings were caught making funny faces. George couldn’t help but show off his teeth with a silly smile, while Louis puffed his cheeks and gleefully punched the air in excitement while watching the Royal Air Force flyover.
