The Royal Family Twitter account, representing Queen Elizabeth and other working royals without their own social media handles, has shared a touching tribute dedicated to Prince William on his 40th birthday.

The tweet, accompanied by a picture of the Duke of Cambridge smiling widely during an engagement, reads, “Happy birthday to the Duke of Cambridge.”

While it is customary for the Queen’s social media account to mark the birthdays of working royals, Prince William received a special tribute.

The Twitter account highlighted several key moments in his life, showcasing the close relationship he shares with his grandmother.

The first tweet in the thread emphasizes William’s prominence within the royal family, stating, “As the second in line to the throne turns 40, learn more about his Royal Highness.”

The thread begins with a snapshot taken on the steps of St. Mary’s Hospital, shortly after his birth.

In the photograph, a young Prince William is cradled in the arms of his adoring mother, Princess Diana.

Another photo captures the Buckingham Palace announcement of his birth, symbolizing this significant event.

The Royal Family Twitter account also celebrates William’s graduation from St. Andrew’s University and his completion of the 44-week training course at the Royal Military Academy Sandhurst.

A delightful picture shows Queen Elizabeth inspecting the Guard of Honour at Sandhurst, while Prince William can hardly contain his smile in her presence.

Another notable moment in Prince William’s life highlighted by the Twitter thread is his training as a search and rescue RAF pilot.

The chosen snapshot features the Queen and Prince Philip visiting William at Anglesea in 2010, as he proudly guides them around the RAF valley.

The thread further acknowledges William’s two years of service as an air ambulance pilot at East Anglian Air Ambulance.

Additionally, the Queen’s tribute includes two mentions of his family life.

One picture depicts William and his wife, Kate, leaving Westminster Abbey after their wedding ceremony in April 2011.

The final image, released by Kensington Palace ahead of Father’s Day last October, captures Prince William surrounded by his three joyful children during their holiday in Jordan.

As Prince William celebrates this milestone birthday, the Royal Family Twitter account has beautifully commemorated the significant moments that have shaped his life.
