- Published
A new photograph of Prince George has been released to mark his ninth birthday on Friday.
Wearing a light blue shirt, he is seen smiling in the photo, which was taken on a sandy shoreline by his mother the Duchess of Cambridge.
She captured her son's image on camera during a family holiday in the UK earlier this month.
Kensington Palace said Catherine and husband Prince William were "delighted" to share the snap with the public.

Prince George Alexander Louis - known as His Royal Highness Prince George of Cambridge - was born on 22 July 2013.
He was born in the private Lindo Wing of St Mary's Hospital in central London and appeared in front of the world's media a day later, when Prince William and Catherine stood cradling him on the hospital steps.

George is third in the royal line of succession, meaning he will be king following his father, the Duke of Cambridge, and, before him, his grandfather, the Prince of Wales.
He will be the 43rd monarch since William the Conqueror obtained the crown of England in 1066.
