It’s a very special day in the Cambridge household today, as Prince William is celebrating turning 39 years old! And of course, as is now custom, his Royal Family have taken to social media to send him celebratory well wishes - as well as share some photos of the future king.

First up, William’s father, Prince Charles, has shared two touching photos of the pair together, including a real black and white throwback of William as a baby. In the image of the royal as a youngster, he can be seen sitting on Charles’ lap as Charles looks down at him affectionately. How sweet!

The second image shared by the Clarence House account shows William, Prince Charles and Charles’ wife, Camilla Duchess of Cornwall, sat together at an event and clapping/looking rather jolly. The accompanying caption reads: “Wishing The Duke of Cambridge a very Happy Birthday today! 🎂”

The official Royal Family Instagram account (which provides regular updates on The Queen) posted an Instagram Story of a photo of the Cambridge family - Prince William, Kate Middleton, Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis - on the balcony of Buckingham Palace. The image was taken during one of the annual the Trooping of the Colour events, to celebrate one of the Queen’s birthdays (that’s right, Her Majesty has two!).

Alongside the photo, the Royal Family’s account wrote: “Wishing the Duke of Cambridge a very Happy Birthday today!”

Over on Prince William and Kate Middleton’s own Instagram account, which recently had a name change, a thank you message has been shared.

Along with a photo of Prince William looking smart in a navy suit, the message of thanks reads, “Thank you for all the birthday wishes and kind messages 🎂”

The Prince's birthday comes right after Father's Day, for which further adorable family photos were shared to mark the occasion. William was also pictured separately with George and Charlotte cheering on marathon runners.

In photographs published by the Daily Mail, seven-year-old Prince George and six-year-old Princess Charlotte were both seen attending a half marathon race on the Sandringham Estate in Norfolk (where the family have a country home, Anmer Hall). Dressed casually in navy chinos and a light blue shirt, Prince William counted down to mark the start of the race with George and Charlotte on the microphone.

Happy birthday to you, Prince William!
