The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are making a habit out of public birthday Instagram messages, using the social media platform to wish Prince George a happy sixth birthday yesterday. Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, who started their own account, @sussexroyal, earlier this year, commented on one of the three photos shared by @kensingtonroyal and taken by Georgeโs mum, Kate Middleton.
In the three portraits, George is playing outside wearing a soccer t-shirt in two and a green polo in the middle image. The images were captioned: โ๐โฝ๏ธ Happy Birthday Prince George! The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge are very pleased to share new photographs of Prince George to mark His Royal Highnessโs sixth birthday.โ

โThis photograph was taken recently in the garden of their home at Kensington Palace by The Duchess of Cambridge,โ the post continued. โThank you everyone for all your lovely messages!โ
On the second photo, showing George on holiday with his family, his aunty and uncle wrote: โHappy Birthday ๐๐ Wishing you a very special day and lots of love!โ

Since opening their own Instagram, Meghan and Harry have publicly wished Prince William, Princess Charlotte, Prince Louis and now Prince George a happy birthday (They did not have their own Instagram during Kate Middletonโs birthday on January 9.)
For Louisโs birthday in April, they commented: โHappy Birthday Louis! Sending lots of love from both of us ๐๐ xo.โ
They wrote a similar message for Charlotteโs birthday in May, commenting: โHappy Birthday, Charlotte! ๐๐ Lots of love, H and M xo.โ
In June for Williamโs birthday, they commented their most formal response, โHappy Birthday to the Duke of Cambridge!โ
According to The Sun, Prince George celebrated his birthday on the Caribbean island of Mustique, a tropical isaland, which the family last visited in summer 2018 and have visited most years since 2008, including a few trips with Kateโs parents.
โThey are going to Mustique again,โ a source told the publication, saying that the Duke and Duchess go back to the location because of its privacy and the fact that Kate used to holiday there with her family when she was young.
โIt is incredibly private and incredibly discreet but not remote. They know and trust the staff who work there and they are creatures of habit,โ they explained. โKate used to go there, the Middletons used to go there. The family love it.โ
