Prince George Is All Smiles in New Photo Day Before 2nd Birthday

Unlike previous year, Prince George will enjoy a much more low-key celebration at Anmer Hall at his Norfolk home when he turns two tomorrow.

Prince George made our heart melt when this picture with Charlotte was released [Kensington Palace/Twitter]. Snapped by his grandmother’s favourite photographer, Mario Testino – we see little tyke George in his father’s arm, looking as cheeky as ever!

Prince William described his son as a “little monkey” in an interview last week when he started work as an air ambulance pilot.

Prince George shows off his huge grin in a new picture released by Kensington Palace [Kensington Palace/Instagram].

A spokesman for Kensington Palace said: “This photograph captures a very happy moment on what was a special day for The Duke and Duchess and their family”.

And, unlike his first birthday party at Kensington Palace, the Queen is not expected to attend either. “Watch this space! #HappyBirthdayPrinceGeorge”, the Palace tweeted today.

But the couple plan to stay at Sandringham House for several days at the end of the week so they can spend some “quality time” with George and Princess Charlotte, who is nearly three months old.

One touching shot showed the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge with their two young children smiling widely on the lawn outside the Church of St Mary Magdalene in Sandringham.
