Happy Birthday, Prince William, Your Dad Got You This Picture of Himself to Celebrate

Everyone knows one. Maybe it’s an old college acquaintance of yours, who is really getting her money’s worth from that wedding photographer by posting shots from the day every chance she gets. Anniversaries are kind of a gimme, sure, but she’s out here trotting out snaps of her in that white dress for every possible occasion. Father’s Day? Here’s me and my dad, walking down the aisle. Friend got engaged? Congrats, bestie! Here’s a photo of us at my wedding! National Ice Cream Day? LOL, here’s a vaseline-lensed getting-ready pic of my bridesmaids and me eating fro-yo in our matching satin robes, and it definitely was not posed, and by the way, remember when I got married? I looked great, right?

Now, we’re not saying King Charles III was once a bridezilla, but, you know, kind of a look to celebrate your eldest son and heir’s birthday by posting a photo of him helping you practice to become king. It’s like a wedding, but to an entire country and centuries-old tradition. Potato, po-tah-to.
