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 is third in the line of succession to the British throne, behind his grandfather Prince Charles and his father. Due to his rank in the line of succession, and the subsequent expectation that he will one day become the British monarch, his birth was widely celebrated across the Commonwealth realms. George occasionally accompanies his parents on royal tours and engagements.

Birth and christening

Prince 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 announced by press release, and was followed by the display of a traditional easel in the forecourt of Buckingham Palace.^[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] Prince George's official title and style is "His Royal Highness Prince George of Cambridge",^[11]^[12] which he has carried since birth, in accordance with Letters Patent dated 31 December 2012.^[13]

George's father, the Duke of Cambridge, is the elder son of the Prince of Wales, who is the heir apparent to Queen Elizabeth II,^[14] placing George third in the line of succession to the British throne.^[15] Speculation ensued during the pregnancy of the Duchess of Cambridge that George's birth would boost the British national economy and provide a focus for national pride.^[15] Commemorative coins were issued by the Royal Mint and the Royal Canadian Mint,^[16]^[17] the first time a royal birth had been marked that way.^[16] 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.^[18]

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.^[19]^[20] The font used at the ceremony was made for Queen Victoria's first child and the water was taken from the River Jordan.^[21]^[22] Prince George spent his first months on his parents' cottage on the grounds of Bodorgan Hall in Anglesey, Wales, before his family relocated to Kensington Palace in 2014.^[23]^[24] His younger siblings, Charlotte and Louis, were born in 2015 and 2018, respectively.^[25]

Education

George's formal education began in January 2016, when, at the age of two, he began attending the Westacre Montessori School Nursery, near his family home at Anmer Hall in Norfolk.^[26] He attended his first day of primary school on 7 September 2017 at the Thomas's School in Battersea.^[27]^[28] He attends the school under the name of George Cambridge.^[29]

Official appearances

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".^[30] Prime Minister of Australia Tony Abbott predicted in Parliament House, Canberra, that George would one day be welcomed there as King of Australia.^[30] 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.^[31]

On 22 April 2016, George met U.S. President Barack Obama and his wife Michelle Obama. He was photographed with a rocking horse that Obamas had given him when he was born. The encounter later prompted Barack Obama to joke that "Prince George showed up to our meeting in his bathrobe... a clear breach of protocol."^[32] George and his younger sister, Charlotte, accompanied their parents on a tour of Canada in September 2016,^[33]^[34] and on a diplomatic visit to Poland and Germany in July 2017.^[35]

In March 2020, Prince George joined his siblings, Charlotte and Louis, in an online video to applaud key workers during the coronavirus pandemic.^[36] In September 2020, the children met David Attenborough; Kensington Palace subsequently released a video of them asking Attenborough questions regarding environmental conservation.^[37]^[38] 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.^[39]

In 2021, he and his parents attended the England–Italy final of UEFA Euro 2020 at Wembley Stadium in London.^[40] The second soccer game he attended, he was called a "good-luck charm" due to England winning the previous game he attended.

Public image

Fashion impact

The "Prince George effect", sometimes known as the "royal baby effect", is a term used to describe an uptick in sales of clothing and other products used by George.^[41] In 2016, the dressing gown that he wore while meeting President Obama sold out after he was seen wearing it.^[42] In September 2017 the news that the Prince's school had served a Le Puy green lentil dish resulted in a spike in the sales of the legume.^[43] He was ranked number 49 on GQ's "50 Best Dressed Men in Britain" list in 2015.^[44] In 2018, George became the youngest person to appear on Tatler's best-dressed list.^[45]

Media relations

George's parents have been adamant about maintaining their son's privacy as he grows up.^[46] 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, including surveilling the family and sending children to bring George into view.^[47]

Cultural depictions

In the British satirical sketch programme Newzoids then toddler Prince George is depicted as a rebellious, foul mouthed character with a lewd sense of humour.^[48] The 2016 children's book Winnie-the-Pooh Meets the Queen, written in honor of the 90th birthdays of both Queen Elizabeth II and the fictional character of Winnie-the-Pooh, features a cameo appearance from Prince George, whom Piglet presents a red balloon.^[49] The 2021 animated sitcom The Prince stars a fictionalized eight-year-old Prince George (voiced by showrunner Gary Janetti) who makes life difficult both for his family and for the British monarchy.^[50] His character is voiced by the show's creator Gary Janetti.^[51]
