From Princess Charlotte’s signature sass and Prince George’s cheeky grin to Prince Louis’ love of interrupting Zoom calls, these miniature royals never fail to make headline news.
It was the Cambridge children’s birthday portraits that has made news this week however, after Prince George’s seventh birthday on 22 July revealed an interesting detail.
taken by The Duchess ahead of Prince George’s seventh birthday tomorrow! 
This year, Prince George’s birthday portraits were taken by his mother Kate Middleton, with the Duchess of Cambridge always taking the official photographs of his two younger siblings.
