Kate Middleton marked her eldest sonPrince George 's seventh birthday with two adorable new photographs.- The third in line to the throne looked incredibly grown up as he flashed a smile for his mom, who likely took the photos at their country home in Norfolk.
- It has become tradition for the duchess to take her children's official birthday photos in recent years.
The Duchess of Cambridge has shared new photos of her eldest son, Prince George, to mark his seventh birthday on Wednesday, July 22.
The third in line to the British throne flashed an adorable gap-toothed smile at his mom, Kate Middleton, who was behind the camera.
The duchess shared two photos, one of George in a gray polo shirt, and another of the young prince wearing a camo shirt while playing outside earlier this month. They were likely taken at the family's Norfolk home, where they have been staying since before the UK went into lockdown in March.
The photos were noticeably less candid than in previous years. Last year, the duchess captured the young prince mid-laugh while laying on the grass in Kensington Palace.
All three of the Cambridge children have experienced their birthdays in Norfolk this year, instead of at their Kensington Palace home in London. Prince Louis had a paint party for his second birthday, while 5-year-old Princess Charlotte was photographed helping to deliver food packages to nearby vulnerable residents.
It has become tradition in recent years for Middleton to take the official photos for her children's birthdays, instead of having a professional royal photographer do it.
