Prince George of Cambridge (George Alexander Louis; born 22 July 2013) is a member of the British royal family. He is the eldest child of Prince William, Duke of Cambridge, and Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge, and third in the line of succession to the British throne behind his grandfather Prince Charles and his father. As he is expected to become king one day, his birth was widely celebrated across the Commonwealth realms. George occasionally accompanies his parents on royal tours and engagements.
Birth and christening
![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/6/6e/Prince_George_best_2013.jpg/200px-Prince_George_best_2013.jpg)
George was born in the Lindo Wing of St Mary's Hospital, London, at 16:24 BST (15:24 UTC) on 22 July 2013.[1] The birth was uncustomarily announced by press conference instead of through an easel outside Buckingham Palace, though an easel was placed following the birth.[1][2] The newborn was widely hailed as a future king in the majority of British newspapers.[3][4] 21-gun salutes signalled the birth in the capitals of Bermuda[5] and New Zealand;[6] the bells of Westminster Abbey and many other churches were rung;[7][8] and landmarks in the Commonwealth realms were illuminated in various colours, mostly blue to signify the birth of a boy.[9] On 24 July, his name was announced as George Alexander Louis.[10]
George's father, the Duke of Cambridge, is the elder son of the Prince of Wales, who is the eldest son of Queen Elizabeth II,[11] placing him third in the line of succession to the British throne.[12] Speculation ensued during the pregnancy of his wife, the Duchess of Cambridge, that the birth would boost the British national economy and provide a focus for national pride.[12][13] Commemorative coins were issued by the Royal Mint, Royal Canadian Mint, and Royal Australian Mint;[14][15][16] the first time a royal birth had been marked that way.[14][17]
George was christened by Justin Welby, Archbishop of Canterbury, in the Chapel Royal at St James's Palace on 23 October 2013, with Oliver Baker, Emilia Jardine-Paterson, Earl Grosvenor, Jamie Lowther-Pinkerton, Julia Samuel, William van Cutsem and Zara Tindall serving as godparents.[18][19] The font used at the ceremony was made for Queen Victoria's first child and the water was taken from the River Jordan.[20][21] The Royal Mint issued a set of commemorative coins to celebrate the christening, the first coins to mark a royal christening in Britain.[22] Prince George's birth marked the second time that three generations in direct line of succession to the throne have been alive at the same time, a situation that last occurred between 1894 and 1901, in the last seven years of the reign of Queen Victoria.[23]
Education
In January 2016, George started his education at the Westacre Montessori School Nursery, near his family home at Anmer Hall in Norfolk.[24] He attended his first day of primary school on 7 September 2017 at the Thomas's School in Battersea.[25][26] He is known as George Cambridge at school.[27]
Official appearances
![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/c/c1/Obamas_with_the_Royals_%2826488482612%29.jpg/220px-Obamas_with_the_Royals_%2826488482612%29.jpg)
George embarked on his first royal tour with his parents in April 2014, during which the Cambridges spent three weeks in New Zealand and Australia. Although he only appeared twice, the BBC described the "nine-month-old future king" as "the star of the show". Prime Minister of Australia Tony Abbott predicted in Parliament House, Canberra, that George would one day be welcomed there as King of Australia.[28] In June 2015, he made his first public appearance on the balcony of Buckingham Palace following the Trooping the Colour parade marking the Queen's Official Birthday.[29]
On 22 April 2016, George met Barack Obama, President of the United States. He was photographed with a rocking horse that Obama had given him when he was born. The encounter later prompted Obama to joke that "Prince George showed up to our meeting in his bathrobe... a clear breach of protocol."[30] George and Charlotte accompanied their parents on a tour of Canada in September 2016,[31][32] and on a diplomatic visit to Poland and Germany in July 2017.[33]
In March 2020, Prince George joined his siblings, Charlotte and Louis, in an online video to applaud key workers during the coronavirus pandemic.[34] In September 2020, the children met David Attenborough; Kensington Palace subsequently released a video of them asking Attenborough questions regarding environmental conservation.[35][36] In December 2020, they made their first red carpet appearance accompanying their parents to the London Palladium for a performance of a pantomime held to thank key workers for their efforts during the pandemic.[37]
In the media
The "Prince George effect", the "royal baby effect", is a term used to describe clothing and products used by George selling better than before.[38] He was ranked number 49 on GQ's "50 Best Dressed Men in Britain" list in 2015.[39] In 2016, the dressing gown he wore while meeting President Obama sold out after he was seen wearing it.[40] In September 2017 the news that the Prince's school had served a Le Puy green lentil dish resulted in a spike in the legume's sales.[41] In 2018, George became the youngest person to appear on Tatler's best-dressed list.[42]
George's parents are adamant that he should grow up as privately as possible.[43] In August 2015, Kensington Palace stated that they wanted all global media to stop taking unauthorised photographs of George, saying that "a line [had] been crossed" in paparazzi methods of locating and photographing him.[44]
Title and style
Prince George's official title and style is "His Royal Highness Prince George of Cambridge".[45][46]
