Prince George is celebrating his latest birthday in a spectacular manner.

In a heartfelt tribute to their eldest son turning 12, Prince William and his wife Kate Middleton revealed a stunning new portrait of George, honoring a cherished family tradition of documenting their children’s significant milestones through photography.

On July 22, the Prince and Princess of Wales—who are also the loving parents of Princess Charlotte, 10, and Prince Louis, 7—shared a delightful picture of George with his arms confidently crossed as he leans casually against a fence. This captivating image, captured by talented photographer Josh Sinner, was accompanied by a warm message: “Happy 12th Birthday to Prince George!”

In the previous year, George, who holds the prestigious position of second in line to the British throne after his father, posed elegantly for the camera while wearing a stylish black suit jacket complemented by a crisp white collared shirt. He added a personal touch to his classic outfit with a braided friendship bracelet—likely a keepsake from attending Taylor Swift’s concert in London just weeks earlier—evident in a larger version of the photograph shared on his parents’ Instagram Stories at that time.
