📸 In keeping with royal tradition, the family have released an image of the youngest Cambridge, taken by his mother the Duchess of Cambridge to mark the day.

👑 Prince George

🐶 To mark the future King's 3rd birthday, professional photographer Matt Porteous captured a sweet moment between George and the Cambridge's family dog.

The charming picture was much more like previous royal portraits than the relaxed Louis photograph
👑 Princess Charlotte

Charlotte was pictured for her 3rd birthday kissing her baby brother, Louis, who was not yet a fortnight old.

🌺 The picture was taken at Kensington Palace where the Cambridge's were settling in to being a family of five

👑 Prince William

This picture was taken a few months after the Prince's birthday by photographer Anwar Hussein, on August 16, 1985.

📸 The red carpet shows how even a three-year-old Prince William is embarked on a lifetime of royal duty
👑 Prince Harry

The day after Harry's 3rd birthday was his first day at Mrs Mynors's Nursery School.

🖍️ Prince William went to the same nursery school and accompanied Harry on his first day, as did his parents, Prince Charles and Princess Diana

👑 The Duchess of Cambridge

At the age of 3, royal life was not on the radar of Kate Middleton. She can be seen pictured like any other child in a much more knockabout, natural pose.

🎀 The future Queen wore charmingly messy hair, artlessly tied by two blue ribbons
👑 Prince Charles

The Prince of Wales was photographed around his 3rd birthday with his parents and younger sister Princess Anne.

➡️ It would be but months later that the King would die, leaving 25 year old Princess Elizabeth to be Queen

👑 Queen Elizabeth II

Little Lilibet, later Queen Elizabeth II, was photographed at age three, in 1929.

The throne would have been far from her and her parents' mind. George V, was king, and her uncle was due to inherit the throne
