Britain’s royal family released two pictures of its third newest royal baby, Prince Louis. The pictures are taken by his his mother, the Duchess of Cambridge Kate Middleton at their Kensington Palace home. To mark the birth of the royal baby and to celebrate his big sister Princess Charlotte’s third birthday, proud parents Prince William and Kate Middleton shared two new photos of the siblings on Saturday.

In an adorable photo, three-year-old Princess Charlotte is seen kissing her sleeping brother. The photo was taken on May 2, to celebrate Charlotte’s third birthday. The picture depicts the older sister’s caring and protective nature towards the youngest royal baby brother.

From their official twitter handle, Kensington Palace tweeted this endearing picture of the siblings and captioned it: “The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge are very pleased to share two photographs of Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis, taken by The Duchess at Kensington Palace.”

The second photo is the solo image of Prince Louis which was taken on April 26, three days after his birth. Wearing a white cosy jumper and trousers, Prince Louis is wide awake and the picture gives us a glimpse of Louis’ bright, glistening eyes, dark hair and his calm facial expressions.

The tweet from Kensington Palace read: “The Duke and Duchess would like to thank the members of the public for their kind messages following the birth of Prince Louis and for Princess Charlotte’s third birthday. Both the images were taken by Kate at their Kensington Palace home.

Louis Arthur Charles is fifth in line to the British throne and William and Kate’s third child. He will hold the title of prince after the Queen changed the rules in 2012 to ensure that all of William’s children would be entitled to the throne and not just his eldest son. Louis’ next appearance will be at his royal christening which will likely occur in July. While Kate will be attending the next royal wedding of Prince Harry and US actress Meghan Markle which is set to take place on May 19, Prince Louis will stay at home.
