Prince George looks all grown up in new birthday portrait
Prince George is 11!
The Princess of Wales has celebrated her son's birthday by sharing a new portrait of the young royal on social media.
“Wishing Prince George a very happy 11th birthday today!” she captioned the black and white photo of George looking all grown up in a button up shirt and black blazer.
Royal fans also flooded the comment section with happy birthday wishes for the young monarch.
"This picture is so beautiful, he is growing up so fast! I wish the happiest birthday to Prince George, have the best day," one wrote
"Prince George looks so much like his Dad," another added.
"HE'S GROWING UP SO FAST! I can't believe! Happy birthday George!" a third commented.
"Happy birthday! I hope you have so much fun," a fourth wrote.
This comes as Prince George's godmother, Julia Samuels revealed the young royal's birthday tradition that was inspired by the late Princess Diana.
Speaking on the How to Fail with Elizabeth Day podcast, she shared that each year she buys noisy toys for George that take the Prince of Wales "days to put together" in a running joke inspired by Diana.
"I come in slightly tipped by the size of the present that William then has to spend days putting together," she said.
"And then put all the machinery together and it makes awful tooting noises and lights flashing and all of that. That makes me laugh and it makes George laugh."
She also praised the young prince saying: “He is amazing. He’s funny and feisty and cheeky and God she [Diana] would have loved him so much.
“That is heartbreaking for all of them.”
Julia Samuels is one of seven godparents for Prince George, and she was a close friend of Princess Diana, who she met at a dinner party in 1987.
