"A heartfelt thank you to the Prince and Princess of Wales for entrusting me to take his portrait. "As always, feeling deeply honoured and very lucky. And wishing Prince George the very happiest of birthdays," she added. Prince George will reportedly mark his 10th birthday with a celebration at his family's home in Windsor. Kate will bake a cake for her son's birthday celebrations, a tradition she carries out for all of her children's birthdays. Kate usually takes her children's birthday portraits as she is an avid photographer, but decided to go with Pilkington instead.
