London sources reported that Louis Arthur Charles, who is fifth in line to the British throne, was born on April 23 and are William and Kate's third child. Recently the Kensington Palace released two pictures taken by Kate, the Duchess of Cambridge, documenting the early days of Britain's newest royal.
The palace said in a statement that Prince William and Kate were "very pleased" to share the photographs. Their Royal Highnesses would like to thank members of the public for all of the kind messages they have received following the birth of Louis, and for Charlotte's third birthday.
Meanwhile Charlotte turned three on May 2 and bears
a strong resemblance to her new-born brother when she was a baby. Further due
to a 2013 change in the law, Charlotte is the first British princess for whom
the arrival of a younger brother does not mean being demoted down the line of
succession. Previously Kate has released a series of photographs snapped by her
to mark milestones in her children's lives, including the official photographs
of her new-born daughter, and George and Charlotte's first days at nursery
school.
