New Photo Of Prince William And His Children Released To Mark His Birthday
Prince William is feeling the birthday love. On Friday, Kate Middleton posted a new photo on social media to wish the future King a happy 42nd birthday.
The Princess of Wales, 42, shared a sweet action shot of William jumping in the sand with the pairâs three children Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis.
âHappy birthday Papa, we all love you so much! Cx,â she captioned the snap, shared on X.
Elsewhere, King Charles also shared a special birthday photo for his son.
âHappy Birthday to The Prince of Wales! đ,â the monarch, 75, wrote on X alongside a photo of himself holding baby William.
Williamâs birthday celebrations come just one day after he traveled to Germany to watch Englandâs national soccer team take on Denmark in the Euro 2024. The heir to the throne, who serves as the president of the Football Association, snapped a photo alongside Denmarkâs King Frederik X ahead of the 1-1 draw on Thursday.

On Wednesday, William attended the Royal Ascot with several members of the royal family, including his cousins Zara Tindall, Princess Eugenie and Princess Beatrice.
While Princess Catherine wasnât at the event, her parents, Michael and Carole Middleton, were in attendance. The duo were seen chatting to William, and at one point, the Prince helped his 69-year-old mother-in-law when her heel got stuck in the grass.
He helped her hand as she put her shoe back on, and they laughed about the snafu.

This weekâs events came hot on the heels of Saturdayâs Trooping the Colour ceremony, which saw the Princess of Wales make her first public appearance since her cancer diagnosis.
The mom of three, 42, delighted fans by appearing on the Buckingham Palace balcony alongside her husband and father-in-law King Charles to watch the traditional military flypast with her three children. After the Red Arrows shot past the palace, spraying the colors of the Union Jack flag behind them, Middleton and her family waved to the crowd below.
William has faced a challenging 2024 so far after his wife and his father were diagnosed with cancer earlier this year.
After taking some time away from public-facing duties to be with his cancer-stricken wife, William recently returned to the spotlight by taking on an extra workload.
