Prince George looks all grown up as he is pictured smiling in a new photo released to mark his 10th birthday.
The future king, wearing a checked shirt and teal trousers, struck a relaxed pose for photographer Millie Pilkington on a set of outdoor steps at Windsor earlier this month.
She also captured Prince Louis on camera ahead of his fifth birthday in April, as well as the Prince of Wales embracing his three children in a photograph to mark Father’s Day in June.
George has had an eventful month in the lead up to his big day.
Last Sunday he watched from the Royal Box on Wimbledon’s Centre Court as Carlos Alcaraz beat Novak Djokovic in an epic final, foiling the Serb’s bid for a record-equalling eighth win at SW19.
He sat next to his sister Princess Charlotte, who was making her first visit to the tournament.
Before the match, George met eight-year-old Mu’awwiz Anwar, nominated to perform the coin toss, who showed the prince the coin as he chatted with the Waleses on the Players’ Lawn.

A few days before the Wimbledon final, George and his younger siblings sat in the cockpit of a C-17 transport aircraft and played with the switches when they enjoyed a family day out at an airshow.
They toured the Royal International Air Tattoo, at RAF Fairford, Gloucestershire, privately with their parents, as their school holidays began in earnest.
At the beginning of the month, George enjoyed a father and son day out at the cricket when they were spotted watching the second Ashes test match from a box at Lord’s cricket ground in London.
George was seen tucking into a slice of pizza while his father talked to Prime Minister Rishi Sunak.

Prince George Alexander Louis was born in the private Lindo Wing of St Mary’s Hospital, Paddington, London, at 4.24pm on July 22, 2013, weighing 8lb 6oz.
He made his debut in front of the world’s media on the hospital steps one day later, wrapped in a white merino wool shawl, cradled in his mother’s arms.
He will be the 43rd monarch since William the Conqueror to wear the crown if he follows the reigns of his grandfather, the King, and then his father, William.
