It’s hard to believe nine years have passed since our Australian-born Crown Princess Mary of Denmark and Crown Prince Frederik welcomed their first child, Prince Christian into the world.
The handsome, young prince celebrated his birthday on October 15 and his parents released two beautiful images in celebration.
Christian, with his stunning blue eyes, poses on the edge of a luxury yacht in one of the snaps, which were taken during their official trip to Greenland in August.
Casually dressed in jeans and a jumper, the young royal looks strikingly similar to his father.
