King Charles and Queen Camilla have marked Prince William\u2019s 43rd birthday by sharing a photo of the royal on the Royal Family\u2019s Instagram page.<\/p>\n
The monarch, 76, and wife Camilla, 77, posted the snap of the future king kneeling in a field on Saturday (21.06.25) as William turned 43, with the image also shared earlier this year during his visit to farmland owned by the Duchy of Cornwall in Bath.<\/p>\n
Charles and Camilla captioned the snap, which showed William smiling as he sat on a rock wall: \u201cHappy Birthday to The Prince of Wales!\u201d<\/p>\n
The caption was followed by a balloon and confetti emoji to mark the celebration.<\/p>\n
William has also marked his 43rd birthday with a furry celebration \u2013 posing for a new photograph alongside four black cocker spaniel puppies.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s a very happy birthday,\u201d he said in a caption alongside a snap of him with his pets posted on his and wife Catherine\u2019s Instagram page.<\/p>\n
He added: \u201cLove C, G, C, L, Orla and the puppies.\u201d<\/p>\n
The photograph, taken by Catherine, Princess of Wales, 43, earlier this month at Windsor, was shared on the Prince and Princess of Wales\u2019 official social media accounts on Friday (21.06.25) morning.<\/p>\n
It showed the Prince of Wales surrounded by the playful pups, who were revealed last month by The Sun to be the offspring of the family\u2019s pet spaniel Orla.<\/p>\n
The photo was posted with a caption featuring the initials of the couple\u2019s children \u2013 Prince George, 10, Princess Charlotte, nine, and Prince Louis, six \u2013 along with Orla, and two paw print emojis.<\/p>\n
The new additions to the royal household were born earlier this year, though their names \u2013 and the identity of their father \u2013 have not yet been revealed.<\/p>\n
According to The Sun, Orla, who joined the family in 2020, was originally a gift from Catherine\u2019s brother James Middleton, 37, a dog breeder who also bred their late dog Lupo and Orla\u2019s parents.<\/p>\n
A source told The Sun at the time: \u201cMother and babies are doing well.\u201d<\/p>\n
The couple\u2019s children are said to have quickly bonded with the puppies.<\/p>\n
Last year, the Royal Family marked William\u2019s birthday by posting a childhood photo of the royal in his father\u2019s arms.<\/p>\n
Catherine also shared a personal image at the time showing William enjoying time on a beach with their children.<\/p>\n
The birthday celebration comes amid Catherine\u2019s ongoing return to public life following her cancer diagnosis.<\/p>\n
She recently pulled out of her scheduled appearance at Royal Ascot, with Kensington Palace confirming her recovery remains the priority.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"King Charles and Queen Camilla have marked Prince William\u2019s 43rd birthday by sharing a photo of the royal…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":203301,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[7708],"tags":[1500,7709,7730,7731,4044,5686,5681,1760,12,5683,5682,5684,7710,519,5685,263],"class_list":{"0":"post-203300","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-royals","8":"tag-breaking-news","9":"tag-british-royal-family","10":"tag-charles","11":"tag-charles-iii","12":"tag-daily-news","13":"tag-global-news","14":"tag-inkl","15":"tag-king-charles","16":"tag-news","17":"tag-news-app","18":"tag-news-headlines","19":"tag-news-today","20":"tag-royal-families","21":"tag-royal-family","22":"tag-today-news","23":"tag-world-news"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/114723064681272414","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/203300","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=203300"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/203300\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/203301"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=203300"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=203300"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=203300"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
