George flashed a cheeky smile just as wide as the one he gave in 2015, when he posed with dad William ahead of his second birthday.

For many, it will seem like yesterday that the baby Prince was first introduced to the world as Kate and William left St Mary’s Hospital in central London.

The birth of a new heir to the throne even prompted The Sun to change its masthead to The Son.

It shows the matching brown suede shoes which they both also wore on a trip to the Royal International Air Tattoo in Fairford, Gloucs, this month.

The portrait was taken at Windsor by photographer Millie Pilkington, who also took the private wedding pictures for George’s mum and dad, the Prince and Princess of Wales, in April 2011.

She also took official Royal Family photos marking Father’s Day last month and George’s sister Princess Charlotte’s eighth birthday in May.
