The post comes less than a week after George celebrated his 13th birthday on July 22, marking his first summer as a teenager. His birthday also comes just before another big milestone.
George is expected to begin attending Eton College this fall. In recent months, he has appeared alongside his parents at several high-profile events, giving royal watchers a closer look at his growing public role.
Charlotte, 11, and Louis, 8, also feature throughout the photo roundup. The siblings are seen enjoying relaxed moments outdoors with their parents, offering a different side of family life from the formal royal events where they’re often photographed.
