Prince George was born on July 22, 2013 and made his public debut just hours later when he appeared in his mother's arms on the steps of the Lindo Wing at St. Mary’s Hospital.

At the time, Prince George was third in line to the throne, behind his grandfather, the now King Charles, and his father, Prince William. He became second in line following the death of Queen Elizabeth II in September 2022, when Charles became the king of England.
