Prince Francois of Luxembourg, who turns two on Thursday, will get the most memorable birthday celebration. We all know how this story ends – this ain’t a freaking fairy tale, folks! He was subsequently accompanied by his older brother, Prince Charles, and their father, Hereditary Duke Guillaume. The day-long event took place in their backyard. Prince Francois impressed his family with his inquisitive nature, as he enjoyed early birthday celebrations.
The jubilation moved into overdrive when Prince Francois showed up, dapperly attired in maroon sweater and brown slacks. He took a keen interest in the family’s chickens. This event reminded us all of Prince Louis. His mother, the Princess of Wales, posted a photo of her son at only three years old riding a bright red bike. Photographer Sophie Margue documented quiet, tender moments in a series of portraits. She released them prior to Prince Francois’s royal birthday celebration, emphasizing the small royal’s cuteness.
Just last week, Prince Francois completed his first royal engagement during the inauguration of a school named after him. Prince Charles officially opened the event by cutting a ribbon. He then hit the ground with his parents on a tour of the facilities, taking it all in. He was transfixed by a painting of a train mounted on the wall. It beautifully epitomized the brothers’ mutual love of locomotives.
A unique feature of Prince Francois’s pre-birthday festivities was a huge cake topped with toy steam trains. With this delicacy, the pastry chef paid tribute to the young prince’s varied passions. It turned into the focal point of the close-knit family ceremony. The celebration Prince Francois was able to give himself will forever bear precious memories made with the people he loved most.
