Kensington Palace released new images last night to mark the second birthday of Prince Louis.
The photos were taken by the Duchess of Cambridge earlier this month at the family’s Norfolk home, Anmer Hall.
Young Louis is seen happily playing with watercolours in the images, and a picture of his hand-painted rainbow artwork was released alongside his birthday images. The rainbow artwork is in tribute to NHS workers across the country who are on the frontlines of the COVID-19 pandemic.
The Prince’s rainbow handprint was placed on the window of Anmer Hall to support the NHS workers. Millions of other children across the UK have created rainbow drawings and pictures, with the idea originating in Italy, to place in the windows of their homes to show support for those in the medical field.
The Duchess of Cambridge recently revealed that the family was keeping in touch with their parents and grandparents through video chats and that two-year-old Louis loved to push the red ‘end’ button.
Prince Louis’s older sister, Princess Charlotte will soon celebrate her birthday, as well. The Princess will turn five on 2 May. His cousin, Archie (the son of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex) will celebrate his first birthday just a few days later on 6 May in Los Angeles, where the Sussexes currently reside.
Prince Louis is the third and youngest child of the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge and was born in the Lindo Wing of St Mary’s Hospital in London in 2018.
