Prince George celebrated his 11th birthday with a black-and-white portrait taken by his mother, Kate Middleton, continuing a royal tradition of sharing birthday photos of royal children. The photo, shared on social media by Kensington Palace, shows George in a suit, smiling, and wearing a friendship bracelet, which fans speculate could be from a Taylor Swift concert he attended with his family. Celebrations included two parties: one in London with family and friends, and another with his school friends. George, the second in line to the throne, has had a busy year with public appearances, including attending the UEFA Euro 2024 final and a Taylor Swift concert. The royal family has faced challenges with both the Princess of Wales and King Charles undergoing cancer treatment. Despite these difficulties, they have remained active in public life, with Kate recently making a return at Wimbledon.
