Prince Charles celebrates his 70th with two gorgeous family photos

Two new photographs of The Prince of Wales and his family, taken in the garden of Clarence House, have been released to celebrate his 70th birthday.

The lovely photos show three generations of royals, as Charles sits with his children and grandchildren. One picture shows the family looking polished and posing, while the second photo is a more natural shot with the group laughing.

Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall, joins her husband of 13 years in the family pictures to celebrate the Prince’s milestone birthday on November 14.

The extraordinary photos, depicting Charles in a way that has not been seen before, come as Clarence House continues a publicity campaign designed to win public affection for the heir to the throne, who is taking on an increasing royal workload.

Shot in the gardens of his London home in September, they show Prince Charles with his wife Camilla sitting on a bench, surrounded by sons Prince William and Prince Harry, their wives Catherine and Meghan, and his three grandchildren Prince George, 5, Princess Charlotte, 3, and baby Prince Louis, seven months.

A more candid photo leaked earlier today without the permission of the family, but this cheesy one is officially here now, and it’s time for you to go, “Awww!” at the kiddos’ little faces.

Charles and Camilla are sitting on a bench in the garden, with five-year-old Prince George sat on his grandfather’s knee, while Princess Charlotte is sitting next to Camilla.

Three-year-old Charlotte is flashing a cute smile in the pictures, with Camilla putting an arm around the youngster in one of the snaps.

The Duchess of Cornwall looks elegant in a light-coloured dress, while Charles looks typically smart in a pinstripe suit and shiny black loafers.

The Duchess of Cambridge is holding a smiling Prince Louis – alongside husband Prince William. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are also all smiles in the adorable photo.
