The prince usually seen in more formal attire, surprises fans this time with a relaxed vibe, sporting an open collar sans tie and flashing a cheeky grin. But there's one thing about the photo that has everyone talking.
The Wales family posted on their Instagram and X pages, exclaiming: "Wishing Prince George a very happy 11th birthday today!" Snapped by his mom Kate, 42, the image has sparked a flurry of comments about George's striking resemblance to his father. Among the many compliments, one fan remarked: "A handsome young man! He takes after his dad, so alike."
"Looking like his dad," one fan gushed, while another chimed in with: "Looking so grown up and so like his father. Happy Birthday Prince George."
Someone else thought he bore a resemblance to another royal, noting: "Happy birthday your Highness, there is a look of your great great grandfather, the Duke of Edinburgh there."
Nostalgia hit another fan who reminisced: "He was the cutest baby, now such a handsome young man! HB Prince George! " Meanwhile, time seems to have flown for another commenter who expressed surprise: "Oh my gosh, I can't believe Prince George is 11 years old, how time flies by. Happy Birthday Prince George, hope you have a lovely day with your family."
This year has been eventful for young George, who's been seen at various UK events. He had the chance to meet Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce during her Eras tour and even accompanied his dad William to cheer on England in their Euros final against Spain.
