He will turn 40 in a few days, but this charming photo – released to coincide with Father’s Day – shows that Prince William already has all the gifts he could wish for.
Made during a family vacation in Jordan, it shows William sitting between Prince George, eight, and Princess Charlotte, now seven, with his youngest Prince Louis, now four, perched on his shoulders. He shines contentedly as his children roar with laughter.
William will celebrate his important birthday on Tuesday as he and his wife Kate prepare to announce a move to Windsor, as The Mail on Sunday first reported last August.
This image differs from the latest official photos in that it was not taken by the Duchess of Cambridge, an avid amateur photographer. Instead, Kensington Palace said the stunning portrait was taken by a private, unnamed photographer during an escape last fall.

A similar image of Cambridge, which appears to have been taken the same day and shows Kate in a khaki green dress and William in an olive shirt and beige shorts, was used as the family’s latest Christmas card.
However, this portrait offers a more informal, relaxed view of family life. Although the exact location has not been revealed, the picturesque sandstone background suggests it may have been made in Petra, an ancient archeological site in the southwestern desert of Jordan.
Cambridge has a personal relationship with Jordan, as Kate lived there for three years when her father Michael was sent to the capital Amman to work for British Airways in May 1984, when she was two and her sister Pippa was eight months old. . old

Speaking during an official visit to the country in 2018, William described Jordan as a “beacon of hope”, adding: “My wife is very sorry that she cannot be here with me so soon after the birth of our son Louis, but the family she remembers very fondly almost the three years she spent here as a child.
Before his birthday, friends talk about the importance of his family.
One told the Daily Mail: “He just loves being a dad and having a settled family around him. Having children always puts things in perspective … Whatever happens “at work”, he has to go home and be a “normal” person on behalf of his children, which makes him calmer with the reality of the other. his life. ‘
George, Charlotte and Lewis played a central role in the Queen’s platinum anniversary celebrations earlier this month, with Lewis stealing the show with his animated reactions on the balcony of Buckingham Palace in the spring of RAF and in the stands at the Party at the Palace concert.
