They are identical.

  • Prince William and Kate Middleton released brand new pictures of their family in celebration of Willam's birthday and Father's Day.
  • Kate and Princess Charlotte look literally identical in a throwback from Kate's childhood.

The royal family is celebrating Prince William's birthday today (June 21!), and as is customary, released a slew of new pictures of William chilling with his kids on Instagram—which were taken earlier this month by Kate Middleton. Behold, the cuteness:

An-y-way, if you're wondering what Kate and William have been up to while in quarantine with their children, it sounds like they've mostly been spending their days baking, playing outside, doing school work, and—ah yes—"gardening together and planting seeds." Same.

The royal couple recently had their first public engagements amid the coronavirus pandemic, with William visiting family-run bakery shop Smiths the Bakers, and Kate checking out the Fakenham Garden Centre.

Love to see it.
