Kate Middleton shares new birthday photo of Prince Louis
Prince Louis has turned six!
Prince William and Princess Kate have released a new photo of the young royal to mark his special day.
"Happy 6th Birthday, Prince Louis! Thank you for all the kind wishes today,” the couple wrote on social media.
In the picture, taken by the Princess of Wales, the young royal donned a plaid shirt with blue pants and was smiling at the camera.
Eagle-eyed royal watchers noticed one sweet detail in the photo: Prince Louis appears to have had a visit from the tooth fairy, as one of his bottom front-teeth was missing.
“Thank you so much for sharing this delightful picture. I see the tooth fairy has been visiting - goodness time flies so fast,” one fan wrote on X.
"Happy birthday Prince Louis!! Can’t believe how grown up he is looking, hope he has the best day!" wrote another on Instagram.
"So glad to hear from Princess Catherine via this delightful photo. HBD, little Louis !" added a third.
"Wishing this sweet little prince the happiest of the birthdays," commented a fourth.
Kate is known for taking photos of her kids for their birthdays, and this milestone comes after a difficult period for the royal family, with both Kate and King Charles' cancer diagnosis.
The family of five have taken time out of the spotlight in recent weeks and celebrated a more low-key and private Easter break in Norfolk.
