The Prince and Princess of Wales have shared a new photo of Prince George to mark his 11th birthday.
The image, posted on Kensington Palace’s social media accounts, was taken by Kate at Windsor earlier this month. The black and white shot shows the future King looking smart and grown up in an open-necked white shirt and dark blazer as he smiles at the camera.
The birthday boy was recently pictured going through a rollercoaster of emotion in Berlin after England lost 2-1 to Spain in the Euros final.
Wishing Prince George a very happy 11th birthday today!

The Prince of Wales and his son George went from ecstasy to agony as the referee blew his final whistle. The royal pair shot up and embraced as Cole Palmer fired a goal into the net, bringing the score to England 1 – 1 Spain.
In their adorable bonding moments, George, 10, was also snapped appearing to strategize with his father.
The young royal furrowed his brows and pointed towards the pitch amid the intense Euro 2024 final.
Meanwhile, Wills was spotted with an equally invested expression and open hands as he watched on the edge of his seat. But, it all came crashing down at the full-time whistle, after a goal by Oyarzabal put Spain 2-1 up.

The Prince and his dad had their heads in their hands as England’s dream of ending 58 years of heartache came crashing down.
This wasn’t the first time the Prince had watched the Three Lions just fall short of winning a major trophy.
In 2020, he was consoled by his dad after England suffered another “heartbreaking” defeat in the Euros final. William stood with his hands on his seven-year-old son’s shoulders as they realised the Three Lions wouldn’t be bringing it home.
