Prince George celebrated his 12th birthday on Tuesday, July 22, and Prince William and Princess Kate treated fans to both a new portrait and a sweet video for the occasion. The future King looked all grown up—and just like his dad—in his official birthday photo, but the portrait also brought to mind one of the Princess of the Wales's iconic moments.
Wearing an olive green fleece vest over a white and blue checkered button-up shirt, Prince George beams as he leans across a weathered wood fence in the picture, taken by photographer Josh Shinner. The pre-teen also wears one of Princess Charlotte's favorite accessories—a blue string friendship bracelet—in the snapshot. Eagle-eyed royal fans might have noticed that the photo is similar to the ones Princess Kate (then the Duchess of Cambridge) took for British Vogue in 2016.
