NORFOLK, ENGLAND - APRIL: Undated handout photo issued by
Kensington Palace on Friday April 22, 2022 of Prince Louis ahead of

The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge
have released four new photographs of Prince Louis as he celebrates
his fourth birthday.
The images were taken by the Duchess
on a beach in Norfolk earlier this month.
The young royal is seen running on
the beach, and his similarities to his maternal grandfather,
Michael Middleton, are uncanny.

The Duchess of Cambridge regularly
gets behind the lens to take photos of her children, and more often
than not, the images released for their birthdays are taken by
Catherine. She is a keen photographer and has brought her good eye
into her royal work, where she has even photographed Holocaust
survivors for an exhibit marking 75 years since its end.
The Prince hasn’t joined his parents
alongside his siblings at some of the latest royal events,
including the memorial service for the late Prince Philip. He has,
however, attended a few events alongside his family in his four
years. As he gets older, we can expect to see him appearing at more
events. Louis should be on the balcony for Trooping of the Colour
this year and possibly other Platinum Jubilee events in June.

Louis currently attends Willcocks
Nursery School in London and is expected to join his older
siblings, Prince George, 9, and Princess Charlotte, 6, in due
course at St Thomas’s Battersea. He is fifth in the line of
succession to the British throne.
