Prince George has been described as "a new royal in training" as his parents "carefully introduce" him to public engagements.
The 12-year-old has been spotted at more events recently, with reports suggesting the Prince and Princess of Wales are gradually bringing him into the royal fold.
Richard Eden, the Daily Mail's Diary Editor, said that with the absence of Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor and Prince Harry, there is an opportunity for the young royal to step up to the mark.
He said: "What we are seeing now is a new royal in training, Prince George."

Mr Eden continued: "At the Festival of Remembrance at the Royal Albert Hall, we saw his mother, Catherine, gently leading the way and really showing how Prince George could handle public engagements in the future.
"It's an event of remembrance, and it's one which is very close to the hearts of the Royal Family, also one which Prince George is very interested in."
Mr Eden explained that it is not the first event of this kind George has attended.
He said: "We saw him earlier this year, meeting veterans at Buckingham Palace when there was a tea party to celebrate the 70th anniversary of VE Day.
