In Prince George’s 11th birthday portrait, fans noticed a touching detail: he’s wearing a braided friendship bracelet similar to those worn by his sister, Princess Charlotte, and grandfather, King Charles III, this summer.
George, looking quite grown up in a black suit, sported the same bracelet he wore with a navy suit at the Euros finals on July 14.
Charlotte, 9, has also been seen wearing matching bracelets at recent royal events, including Wimbledon, where she paired them with a navy polka-dot dress and pink Ray-Ban sunglasses.
King Charles III, 75, joined in on the bracelet trend during a royal visit to the Channel Islands, showcasing a bracelet made from twisted fuchsia and white thread.
It’s likely that one of his grandchildren made these bracelets, allowing them to stay connected and match wherever they go.
