The new Prince George birthday photo taken by Kate Middleton has got excited fans seeing double as they notice this major royal resemblance.
- The latest Prince George birthday photo has been shared to mark his 9th birthday on July 22nd and it couldn’t be more adorable.
- Fans were quick to point out that the “gorgeous” future King is looking incredibly like one of his fellow royals.
- This royal news comes as Prince William’s fans accused Prince Harry of copy and pasting his brother’s speech.
The Queen’s great-grandchildren might not appear as often in public as their parents, grandparents and the monarch herself, but for fans there’s nothing quite being treated to a glimpse of these adorable rarely-seen royals.

Each year their proud parents the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge have shared a new birthday portrait on their big days, often taking by Kate Middleton herself.
This year is no exception and the latest Prince George birthday photo is truly something special!

“Happy Birthday gorgeous George 🎂🧁🎉”, someone else declared admiringly.
The new Prince George birthday photo has definitely got fans talking and he’s thought to be keen to follow his “hero” father’s example. Last year when they watched the Euros 2020 there was apparently an adorable reason he wore a suit.
Opening up to OK! at the time, royal expert Duncan Larcombe declared, “Prince William is George's absolute hero. He thinks his dad’s the most perfect person on the planet. George idolises his dad. That’s why we saw him looking so smart in his suit - he really wanted to dress like William."
The two are thought to be incredibly close and the fan reaction to Prince George’s 9th birthday photo is especially adorable.
