Rare photo
Photos published by members of the royal family on their official social media accounts are usually quite stoic, calm, and elegant. Very rarely do we see two members sharing a hug or a cuddle in front of the cameras. The future king of England decided to break this tradition recently, when he uploaded a picture of him sharing a teddy-bear hug with his son, Prince William. He used the post to highlight how proud he is of his actions towards bettering the planet, writing:
I am very proud of my son, William, for his growing commitment to the environment and the bold ambition of the Earthshot Prize.
As a world, we need to come together to inspire, reimagine and build the sustainable future we so desperately need. Over the coming decade, with future generations in mind, the Earthshot Prize, and its inspirational nominees, will help us find the innovative solutions.
Beaming with pride
The photo was taken by the one and only Kate Middleton, who is an avid photographer herself, and she managed to capture the bond between the father and eldest son perfectly. In fact, we’ve never seen Prince Charles look so giddy with pride.
