The royals usually release images for their children's birthdays under embargo the day before, but when Louis turned six, a new picture was posted straight to social media on the young prince's actual birthday instead.

In previous years Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Louis's birthday is marked with the release of a new official photograph, with his mum Kate usually the one behind the camera.
