Prince George’s fifth birthday has been celebrated with the release of a new official picture.

George Alexander Louis of Cambridge was born in the private Lindo Wing at St Mary’s Hospital, Paddington, at 4.24PM on July 22, 2013.

Prince William and Kate Middleton’s eldest child was photographed in the garden of Clarence House.

The picture was taken after the christening of Prince Louis.

Prince George was last seen, alongside his siblings and parents, at the christening in The Chapel Royal at St James’s Palace. It was the first time the family-of-five had been seen together.

Prince George’s Third Birthday: Kate Middleton and Prince William Release Four Official Pictures

A great-grandson of the Queen, the little prince is third in line to the throne.

George has made a number of public appearances in the past 12 months, including on the balcony at Buckingham Palace for the Queen’s official birthday celebrations in June.

He was seen having fun with Savannah Phillips, the 7-year-old daughter of Prince William’s cousin Peter and his wife Autumn Phillips, who jokingly told him to shush and put her hand over his mouth.

Prince George was also a page boy at the wedding of his uncle Prince Harry to Meghan Markle in May.

He recently completed his first year at school, Thomas’s Battersea in south London, where he played a sheep in the nativity play at Christmas.

The prince is said to love helicopters and flying – perhaps taking after his father, who worked as an RAF search and rescue helicopter pilot.

To mark Prince George’s birthday, a new £5 coin has been issued by the Royal Mint, showing St George and the Dragon on its reverse.

A Kensington Palace spokesman said: “The Duke and Duchess hope that people will enjoy seeing these new photographs.

“They would like to thank everyone for all the lovely messages they have received as Prince George celebrates his third birthday.”

However, the Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (RSPCA) has criticized the picture of the little prince holding an ice cream close to the mouth of the family dog.

A RSPCA spokesman said: “It is lovely that Prince George is trying to help keep his family dog, Lupo, cool in these high temperatures.

“We would advise people to be cautious when giving their dogs food meant for human consumption as some items, like chocolate, can be highly toxic to dogs and dairy items can be difficult for them to digest.

“Instead of ice cream we would suggest making an ice lolly from pet-friendly ingredients. Making these can be really fun for children and the end product is both safe and enjoyable for dogs.”
