Prince Georgeis taking a break from palace life to celebrate his birthday!
According to the palace, the two photos of George wearing England’s official soccer shirt were taken in the garden at Kensington Palace, while the photo of him in a green polo and swim trunks was taken while on holiday. (He also appears to be newly missing a front tooth in the third snap!)
The family of five — including George’s young siblings 4-year-oldPrincess Charlotteand 1-year-oldPrince Louis— are celebrating George, who turns 6 on Monday, on theprivate Caribbean island of Mustique.
Wearing one of his go-to short-sleeve polo shirts and blue-and-white striped shorts, George casually poses near a picnic table in the summery setting. And George is clearly enjoying island time! The young prince sports freshly rosy cheeks and tousled hair in the sweet snap.

Unlike all of his previous birthday portraits,Kate was behind the camera for George’s 6th birthday shots. The images were more intimate than George’s past official birthday photos as the family often taps professionals when it comes time for the prince’s annual snaps. (Kate has shot official birthday portraits for Princess Charlotte andPrince Louis.)
