wetsuit.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThank you for all the birthday wishes for Prince Louis. 8 is great!\u201d they captioned the video.<\/p>\n<p>Earlier that same day, a new portrait of Louis was also shared,

previous year, Louis\u2019 7th birthday was marked with another portrait, this time showing the young prince sitting on a rock with a toothless grin as he showed off his missing front teeth.<\/p>\n<p>He wore a sweater over a button-down shirt paired with jeans, while the caption read, \u201cWishing Prince Louis a very Happy 7th Birthday!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>William and Kate, who married in April 2011, are also parents to Prince George, 13, and Princess Charlotte, 11.<\/p>\n<p>This article originally appeared in <a class=\"body-link\"
