MUST SEE: Incredibly cute photos of UK's Prince George as he turns 3

Last updated on: July 22, 2016 19:35 IST

New photographs of Britain’s Prince George have been released to mark the third birthday of the third in line to the throne.

The images show the prince at the family’s Norfolk home, Anmer Hall, and were taken in mid-July by photographer Matt Porteous.

One image shows the prince playing with the family dog Lupo.

Prince George Alexander Louis -- known as His Royal Highness Prince George of Cambridge -- was born on July 22 2013.

A Kensington Palace spokesman said: “The Duke and Duchess hope that people will enjoy seeing these new photographs.

“They would like to thank everyone for all the lovely messages they have received as Prince George celebrates his third birthday.”

The prince looks adorably cute as he sits on a swing with the names of his father and mother -- William and Catherine-- engraved on it, which some say was a wedding gift to the couple. 

 

The mischievous toddler smiles as he plays on a swing in casual shorts and a T-shirt at his parents' country home.

The moment was captured by photographer Matt Porteous, who was recommended to the family for the birthday photoshoot.

"I really enjoyed the opportunity to take these photographs of Prince George. It was a very relaxed and enjoyable atmosphere. I'm honoured that they have decided to share these images with the public to mark his third birthday," Porteous said.
