Meanwhile, some fans couldn’t get over how grown-up he looked, with one fan writing, “I can't believe he's already nine!”
In the lovely portrait, he can be seen wearing a relaxed, blue polo shirt which is a stark contrast to his latest royal appearance at Wimbledon. During his exciting debut at the Men’s Final, George wore a smart suit, with some fans fearing that the young Prince was too hot as temperatures soared throughout the day.
Despite the fears over his attire, George looked to be enjoying his ‘treat day’ with Kate and William, even getting to meet his sporting hero, Novak Djokovic and holding the Wimbledon trophy.
As for his birthday plans, the young tennis fan will be enjoying some similar one-on-one time with his parents, as they reportedly have a ‘strict rule’ on their children’s birthdays of clearing their schedules to give them their ‘undivided attention.’
