Prince Louis, who turned six on Wednesday, April 23, was disappointed by the end of a centuries-old royal tradition.

The royal family has often celebrated and marked the birthdays of royal members of the family with a special portrait photo. However, royal observers were disappointed to see there was silence on the Prince and Princess of Wales’s official page.

Furthermore, Wells did not share any images with the press on this occasion.

It was thought that Prince William and Kate Middleton would release a photo of their youngest child on her big day despite the infamous uproar over her doctored Mother’s Day photo.

Last month, Kate announced that tests following major stomach surgery had revealed she had cancer.

As the royal continues to recover and receive treatment, it is also uncertain whether the mother of three was able to follow the private birthday tradition set for the children.

Back to the one-off special in 2019 A Berry Royal ChristmasKate told Mary Berry that she “loves making cakes.”

“It’s become a tradition that I stay up until midnight making cake mix and icing and I make a lot but I love it,” she said at the time.
