Prince William shares new family photo, Kate Hudson tributes ‘amazing’ stepdad Kurt Russell
Father’s Day is a day marked by loving tributes to the father figures in our lives, and many stars are also partaking in the celebrations Sunday.
Prince William, father to Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis, celebrated today by sharing an adorable new photo of him with the children.
“Wishing a Happy Father’s Day to fathers and grandfathers across the world today!” the official Twitter account for the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge captioned the photo Sunday.
The photo released Sunday features a different backdrop but appears to have been taken when the British royals visited Jordan last fall. A different family photo was released in December as their annual Christmas card photo.
