Prince William has paid tribute to his late grandmother, Queen Elizabeth, in new photos released to mark Father's Day.
To mark the special occasion, William was pictured smiling with youngest son, Louis, on his shoulders. He is also surrounded by Charlotte, looking lovingly at her father, and George, who is the spitting image of William.
Paying tribute to the late Queen, Prince William opted to pose for the photograph on a very special bench given to the late monarch to mark her milestone 90th birthday, with her date of birth inscribed on it.
With matching blue outfits, the Prince of Wales, who celebrates his 41st birthday on June 21, is wearing a blue denim shirt with dark trousers while his son George wears a checked shirt and blue jeans.
Charlotte looks adorable in the heartwarming photograph, wearing a blue dress with sunflowers on it and a white cardigan. Meanwhile Louis, who couldn’t contain his giggles, has a cosy blue jumper on.
The picture is believed to have been taken at the same time that Louis' fifth birthday snaps were captured back in April as he is wearing the same jumper.
While The Princess of Wales, 41, is known for her photography talents, this time this charming image was taken by Royal-favourite, Millie Pilkington.
It’s no surprise that the couple trusted the experienced photographer to shoot the special picture for this occasion, as they enlisted her to capture Louis' birthday this year. Millie was also the personal photographer behind the scenes at Kate and William’s beautiful 2011 wedding at Westminster Abbey.
The endearing image closely mirrors the family's candid Father’s Day snap from 2022 when Louis was also pictured sitting on William's shoulders.
Their adorable family photo comes after Prince Louis stole the show at Trooping the Colour on Saturday.
The youngster pulled a series of animated faces on the balcony of Buckingham Palace before later saluting the crowd during the flypast
Elsewhere, Prince George and Princess Charlotte were seen sweetly waving to the crowds, with Prince Louis sitting between his two older siblings.
Later, the Royal Family made their way to the Buckingham Palace balcony to watch an extended military flypast after the display on Coronation day had to be scaled down due to bad weather.
