A new picture of Prince George has been shared as the Royal Family marks his 12th birthday.<\/p>\n

The photo, showing George<\/a> <\/strong>smiling while leaning on a wooden gate, was taken by photographer Josh Shinner earlier this year in Norfolk.<\/p>\n

The Royal Family’s<\/strong><\/a> official X account reposted the image with a caption saying: “Wishing a very happy birthday to Prince George!”<\/p>\n

The Prince<\/strong><\/a> and Princess of Wales<\/strong><\/a> often share photographs of their children with their followers – many of them taken by keen amateur photographer Kate – to mark special occasions such as birthdays.<\/p>\n

Earlier this year, the royals shared a photo of Princess Charlotte<\/strong><\/a> that Kate took on an iPhone during a visit to Cumbria for her 10th birthday.<\/p>\n

The royals also shared a photo – also taken by Mr Shinner – for Prince Louis’s seventh birthday<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n

Prince George Alexander Louis was born in the private Lindo Wing of St Mary’s Hospital in Paddington, London, at 4.24pm on 22 July 2013, weighing 8lb 6oz.<\/p>\n

He made his debut in front of the world’s media the following day, wrapped in a white merino wool shawl, cradled in Kate’s arms.<\/p>\n

George was last seen at Wimbledon, and watched on with William and Charlotte as Kate presented the Wimbledon men’s trophy to Jannik Sinner.<\/p>\n
