Young royal channels Prince William’s charm in new portrait and family
video
Prince George, the eldest child of Prince William and Catherine, celebrated
his 12th birthday on July 22 with the release of a new official portrait—and
royal fans can’t stop talking about his striking resemblance to his father.
The photograph, taken earlier this year in the Norfolk countryside, captures
the future king radiating confidence and charm as he poses with a wide,
familiar smile. Shared on the Prince and Princess of Wales’ official social
media accounts, the image quickly drew admiration from followers across the
globe.
Many fans commented on how much George resembles Prince William at the same
age, with one writing, “He looks like his Papa, Prince William there.” Others
added, “He will make a fine king,” and, “Wow! His features so strongly
resemble his dad.”
The birthday celebration didn’t end with the portrait. Kensington Palace also
released a behind-the-scenes video from the photo session, offering a rare
glimpse into the young royal’s playful and affectionate side. The footage
included touching moments of George walking hand-in-hand with his siblings and
sharing a sweet laugh as he and Princess Charlotte lifted a smiling Prince
Louis.
The post, filled with warmth and admiration, reinforced the growing sentiment
that Prince George is not only following in his father’s footsteps—but is
already winning hearts as a future monarch in his own right.
