In the portrait, Prince Charles can be seen holding a young Prince George in his lap while his little sister Princess Charlotte is sitting next to Camilla Parker-Bowles. Both Prince William and Kate Middleton are standing behind Charles with the Duchess holding her adorable 6-month-old son Prince Louis in her arms. Right next to them are Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, who are currently expecting their first child together.
As far as the festivities are concerned, Prince Charles had tea with a group of people who also turned 70 this year. He will also have a birthday party thrown in his honor by his mother, Queen Elizabeth II, later in the evening.
🎂 Wishing a very Happy 70th Birthday to The Prince of Wales!

According to royal filmmaker Nick Bullen, the prince is the happiest that he has been in years. What’s more, he’s not really thinking about his next role in his life and what he will do when he takes the throne. When asked if Prince Charles has any plans in mind, Bullen said, “He is a man who very much lives in the present. And all of the programs we’ve made with him, he’s very now. He has a job to do as the Prince of Wales, which he does willingly… If you speak to him, sure, he’s aware he will be king one day, but that will come at its time. So not too much can be done now if you really think about it.”

What a Big Baby. He really needs to throw a lavish Birthday Party?
What? Games include :
Musical Thrones and
Pin the Crown on the Monarch?
This… This after TWO wasteful Weddings and a horrible and expensive trip to Australia and Africa….
No one said Charlie had any sense. He should have toned this ridiculous party down. Wasteful and conspicuous consumption.
