Adorable!

He is the youngest son of the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, and today, on April 23rd, little Louis Arthur Charles is turning two.

And in honour of the tots birthday, Kensington Palace took to Instagram late last night to reveal some brand new snaps of the little prince – complete with some very colourful artwork he clearly has been busy working on during this lockdown.

The adorable images were taken earlier this month by his mum, the Duchess of Cambridge, and clearly shows how grown-up little Louis is getting – and how much he is starting to look like his big brother, Prince George.

Captioning the adorable snaps, the Cambridges wrote:

“Sharing a sneak peek of Prince Louis’s handiwork ahead of his second birthday! ?”

Just like the rest of the UK, the royals are also currently spending their days at home, and are said to be adhering to government advice on social distancing.

Ever since the announcement about the lockdown, the Cambridges are believed to have been in the company only of their three children, Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis, and their nanny, Maria Teresa Turrion Borallo.

And while we are sure Kate and William would have loved nothing more than to throw a big family birthday bash for their littlest child, this year is bound to be a little different.

Speaking to OK earlier this month, royal expert, Katie Nicholl recently explained she is certain the Duke and Duchess will still try to make the occasion as special as possible for Louis.

“Kate won’t let any birthday pass without a celebration. So even though the family are in self-isolation, she’ll make sure Louis enjoys his day. She tends to organise fairly low-key parties for the children. Usually Kate’s parents Carole and Michael are there, along with her sister Pippa and their brother James. This year will be quieter, of course, but there will be presents that Kate has bought online, as well as a tea party. And if the weather’s nice, they’re sure to be out in the gardens.”

Happy birthday, Prince Louis!
