A birthday picture fit for a prince
Kate posts smiling snap of Louis, 6
Prince Louis grins from ear to ear in an adorable picture taken by his mum for his sixth birthday.
The stunning snap was captured by the Princess of Wales as she continues her recovery from cancer.
Kate, 42, is a keen photographer and often takes a birthday snap of her beloved children, including louis on his first four birthdays.
And she took the latest image at Windsor to mark louis’ special day yesterday.
Dad William, 41, and Kate said: “Happy 6th Birthday, Prince louis! Thank you for all the kind wishes today.”
In the picture, louis is seen lying on his front and looks all grown up with his brown hair swept to the side, and a smart checked shirt.
As he flashes his biggest smile, the young prince also seems to have lost a couple of his baby teeth since his last official appearance on Christmas Day 2023.
last month, the royals faced a backlash for posting an edited Mother’s Day image.
It featured Kate with Prince George, 10, Princess Charlotte, eight, and Prince louis.
Kate apologised for editing the image, before revealing she was having treatment for cancer and saying that the diagnosis had come as a “huge shock”. She said she had not spoken out about her illness earlier because she wanted time to explain it to her children.
The news of her diagnosis came just weeks after King Charles was forced to pause his public appearances in order to be treated for cancer.
louis has often stolen the show on big occasions, including blowing out a candle held by his sister at a ceremony in December.
