  • Kate Middleton and Prince William just released Prince Louis' first birthday portraits, and they are adorable, naturally.

  • Technically, Louis' birthday is tomorrow, but they're celebrating early with these amazing pics.


PSA PSA PSA: Tomorrow is Prince Louis' first birthday, and as such, the royal fam released his birthday portraits. Let's just say they are TO DIE FOR.

You can see the picture above. The fam posted it with this caption: "The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge are delighted to share three new photographs of Prince Louis ahead of his first birthday tomorrow. The photographs were taken earlier this month by The Duchess at their home in Norfolk."

And like... he's such a nug!! Those cheeks! That smile! It's too damn much!

FYI, the royal family has made it a tradition to release pictures to mark the royal kiddos' birthdays and other special events, like their first day of school. A lot of times, Kate Middleton is actually the photographer, because she's a woman of many talents. Imagine if she had a personal Instagram. Imagine.

Considering Prince Louis is a child, there's not much to know about his personality, but a source did say back in September that he is "very quiet and content, always smiling and happy." And at Louis' christening last July, Kate was overheard describing him as "very relaxed and peaceful," before she added "I hope he stays like this."

Kate herself let it slip during a recent event that he'd started crawling. "Louis just wants to pull himself up all the time," she said to another mom.

Speaking of royal kiddos, Meghan Markle is due literally any day now. Sources said that her mother Doria Ragland arrived in England this weekend, which means the baby is probably right around the corner. Plus, Meghan skipped church on Easter Sunday (can you blame her?), which is probably another indicator that she's due RTFN.

"Like all mums, Doria wants to be there for her daughter at this seismic event in her life....She has sometimes worried about being so far away but she is absolutely going to be there for her at the birth,” a source told the Sun.

Counting down the literal moments until Baby Sussex makes its debut!
