| Pictures of the young royal have also been rare, with only a handful photographs released since her birth. They include a group picture with the Queen’s other great-grandchildren and youngest grandchildren to mark the monarch’s 90th birthday. | Pictures of the young royal have also been rare, with only a handful photographs released since her birth.
