Clarence House has released two new photos of Prince Charles with his family to mark his 70th birthday.
The photos were taken in September by photographer Chris Jackson in the garden of Clarence House, and feature Prince Charles, the Duchess of Cornwall, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge and their three children.
In the photos, Prince George sits on Prince Charles’ lap, while Princess Charlotte is seated next to the Duchess of Cornwall. Prince Louis rests in the arms of his mother Kate, the Duchess of Cambridge.
Prince Charles turns 70 on Wednesday.
In recent years, he has taken on a more visible role representing Queen Elizabeth II at important events, including the most recent Remembrance Day ceremony in the U.K.
In an interview for a BBC documentary marking his birthday, Prince Charles said he will not interfere in the affairs of state when he becomes king, since he has been known for his activism on issues such as global warming.
