Happy birthday, Prince George! A look back at his first three years

As he celebrates his third birthday today, Baby London looks back at some of the future king’s most adorable highlights

Everyone’s favourite two-year-old turns three today, and what a three years it has been for his Royal Highness. Ever since the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge stepped proudly out of the Lindo Wing at St Mary’s Hospital on 22 July 2013, it’s been non-stop action for little George. Whether he’s tumbling down hills at polo, sending parents into a fashion frenzy in his high-street threads or stealing the show in his dressing gown while meeting the Obamas, one thing’s for sure, he certainly knows how to work the camera, as these new pictures, taken in the ground of the Cambridges’ family home, show.
