Most notable is how much resemblance Prince Louis bears to his older siblings, Prince George, aged five, and Princess Charlotte, aged three.
Louis, whose full name is Prince Louis Arthur Charles, was born on St George's Day, 2018, at 11.01am, weighing 8 lbs 7oz.
The young prince made his first public appearance shortly afterwards when the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge proudly showed him off on the steps of the Lindo Wing of St Mary's Hospital in Paddington, London, just a few hours after he was born.
Prince Louis, like many infants, is said to be an active child, as Kate revealed he loves "bombing around" on his walker.

During a visit to a children's centre last month, she told a fellow parent: "He just wants to pull himself up all the time. He's got these little walkers and is bombing around on them."
Kate is a keen photographer, and has snapped most of the official photos released by the palace, including one taken of Louis just days after he was born.
