Kensington Palace has released new photos of Prince George to celebrate his seventh birthday and there’s no denying the royal child looks just like his dad, Prince William, did at that age.

George is seen flashing a gap-toothed smile in two new photos, which were taken by his mum, Kate Middleton, which has become a tradition in the Cambridge household.

Kate regularly takes the reins behind the camera, with the majority of the photos shared of her children now coming from her own collection.

"The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge are delighted to share two new photographs of Prince George ahead of his seventh birthday tomorrow," Kensington Palace said in a statement.

While it didn’t say exactly where the photos were taken, it’s thought to be in the grounds of the family’s Anmer Hall home.

In the first photo, Prince George is seen standing against a wooden door, waring a khaki polo shirt and grinning from ear-to-ear.

The next snap shows the royal heir to the throne dressed in a camouflage patterned top, with his hair tousled.

Prince George Alexander Louis of Cambridge was born in the private Lindo Wing of St Mary's Hospital in London in July 2013 and made his first public appearance a day later, when his parents stood on the hospital steps in front of a huge crowd of photographers and camera crews.

As Britain takes its first steps out of COVID-19 lockdown, and with holiday options limited, George is expected to spend his birthday at home. Last year, he celebrated his big day on vacation with his family on the Caribbean island of Mustique.

George is the eldest of the Cambridges' three children. Sister Charlotte is five and brother Louis is two.

For now, though, what we do know, is that Russian convoys are withdrawing from bases across Syria and are heading for the Mediterranean Coast. On a dusty road near the main Russian entrance to Hmeimim air base near Latakia, I could see a convoy of Russian military vehicles trundling their way past the Russian-named shops.
