Kate Middleton, Princess of Wales, and son Prince Louis.
Kate Middleton snapped a new photo of her and Prince William's youngest son, Prince Louis, on his sixth birthday, just as she does for all of her children every year– despite this year being a little different as she continues cancer treatment.
The new picture was shared to Instagram on Tuesday, April 23, and it showed the youngest of Kate and William's three children in a blue and brown plaid button-up as he lay in the grass and smiled big at the camera.
Alongside the close-up was a sweet message from the royals: "Happy 6th Birthday, Prince Louis! ?? Thank you for all the kind wishes today," the statement read before it gave credit where credit is due and attributed the snap to Kate, "?? The Princess of Wales."
