British royal family honor their dads on Father's Day with sweet throwback photos on social media

Prince Philip, Prince Charles, Prince William and King George VI were among the many dads honored on Sunday

The royal family honored multiple generations of dads on social media Sunday to commemorate Father’s Day. 

Queen Elizabeth kicked things off by sharing a rather old, black-and-white photo on her official Instagram account that shows the monarch with three generations of important fathers in her life. In the photo, the queen and her late husband, Prince Philip, stand watching a very young Prince Charles sit on a statue of what appears to be a baby deer. 

In addition to Charles and Philip, her late father, King George VI, stands beside them. All three of the adults in the snap appear to be delighted by the child’s antics. 

"To all dads everywhere, we wish you a very special Father’s Day," the post’s caption reads. "To mark #FathersDay we are sharing this photograph of The Queen with her father, King George VI, and Prince Philip watching a young Prince Charles sitting on a statue at Balmoral in 1951."

Prince William and Kate Middleton joined in on the family tributes for Father’s Day as well, taking to their own Instagram account to show a brief video of a corkboard that eventually reads "Happy Father’s Day" in note cards. The board is then decorated with various pictures of the royal family, including Philip and Michael Middleton.

"Wishing fathers everywhere a happy Father’s Day," the couple captioned the video.
