Prince William and Kate Middleton have released new pictures as Prince George Alexander Louis celebrates his first birthday.
Two new pictures of the third in line to the throne have been released to mark the occasion on Tuesday, July 22.
One shows Prince George transfixed by a butterfly, while a second shows him with his mother and father, staring at an object above their heads.
The pictures were taken a few weeks ago at London’s Natural History Museum by the Press Association’s John Stillwell.
In a statement, Prince William and Kate Middleton thanked people for their “warm and generous good wishes”.
The couple said: “We would like to take this opportunity on George’s first birthday to thank everyone over the last year, wherever we have met them, both at home and overseas, for their warm and generous good wishes to George and our family.”
Prince William and Kate Middleton are expected to hold a birthday party for the young prince on Tuesday at their Kensington Palace apartment.
