Royal Birthday Tradition
The release of a new photograph on a royal child's birthday has become a cherished tradition for the British royal family. Prince Louis, the youngest son of Prince William and Kate Middleton, follows in the footsteps of his older siblings, Prince George and Princess Charlotte, who also have had their birthdays marked with official portraits.
The photo was taken earlier this spring and showcases Louis's cheerful personality. It is the latest in a series of candid and formal images that have documented the growth of the royal children over the years.
