Official Prince George pictures released ahead of his first birthday

An adorable official photo of Prince George has been released ahead of his first birthday.

The image, released on Sunday, shows the young prince confidently walking on his own during a visit to the “Sensational Butterflies” exhibition at the Natural History Museum with his parents the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge.

Two more images of the young prince, who turns one on July 22, will be released in the coming days.

The three pictures have been taken by UK Press Association photographer, John Stillwell.

The museum, of which Duchess Catherine is a patron, opened the outdoor butterfly house in April, 2013.
