The photos of George, who turns 6 on Monday, July 22, give a glimpse into the personality of the eldest child of Kate and Prince William.

George has a big smile in all three photos and is seen laughing hard while laying in grass in one photo.

In two of the photos, George is wearing a Nike jersey featuring the logo of the England national football team.

George was spotted playing football, or soccer, with his siblings, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis, earlier this month when the family stepped out to watch Prince William play in a charity polo match.

Kate revealed during this year's Wimbledon tennis tournament that George is also a tennis fan, and that Roger Federer is his favorite player.

She added the superstar has even played tennis with George, which Federer said took place at Kate’s parents’ home in Bucklebury.
