Lucky him. They seem to be terrific people.&#8221; A third commented, &#8220;Oh my how Louis looks so much like his most beautiful Mama, he&#8217;s a Middleton that&#8217;s for sure, bless him, he&#8217;s so handsome&#8221;. &#8220;Omg,&#8221; another added, &#8220;they are twins&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>Content cannot be displayed without consent<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\" publication=\"mirror\">It&#8217;s often noted just how much Princess Charlotte looks like a Windsor, with many pointing out throughout her childhood that she really takes after the late Queen Elizabeth in many ways. And when Prince George marked his 12th birthday earlier this year, royal fans quickly spotted just how much he looks like his father, Prince William.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/4_Together-At-Christmas-carol-service-2025.jpg\" alt=\"Prince of Wales, Prince George, Prince Louis, Princess Charlotte and the Princess of Wales\" loading=\"lazy\"  \/>Prince of Wales, Prince George, Prince Louis, Princess Charlotte and the Princess of Wales(Image: PA)<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\" publication=\"mirror\">&#8220;&#8216;Wow!

It seems that her elder children take after their paternal royal relatives, while her youngest son favours her side of the family tree in looks.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\" publication=\"mirror\">A friend of the princess once said: &#8220;Everyone always comments on how Louis is the spitting image of Kate. She loves it and thinks it&#8217;s very sweet. She often jokes that he&#8217;s the only one of her kids who actually looks like her&#8221;.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Eagle-eyed royal fans have noticed that Prince Louis appears to have a secret &#8216;clone&#8217; who looks just like&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":307095,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[32],"tags":[6491,96,121,1181,120,122,223,14604,56,54,55],"class_list":["post-307094","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-celebrities","tag-celebrities","tag-entertainment","tag-prince-george","tag-prince-louis","tag-prince-william","tag-princess-charlotte","tag-royal-family","tag-twins","tag-uk","tag-united-kingdom","tag-unitedkingdom"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/307094","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=307094"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/307094\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/307095"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=307094"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=307094"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=307094"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
