Today marks the third birthday of Prince Louis of Cambridge. As always Duke and Duchess of Cambridge realised the official photo to mark his birthday. Prince Louis is the fifth in line for the throne and he is three today.
The Duchess is usually the one who takes pictures of the members of the Royal Family, and it’s not different this time.
Kate took a picture of a young Louis on the grounds of Kensington Palace on the first day of his nursery school. The youngest Prince is attending the same nursery as his sister Charlotte did.
We rarely see the glimpse of younger Royals, but here are some of the photos of the young Prince Louis since the first time he was introduced to the public.
