Prince Louis’ sweet portrait drawing features an incredible detail that royal fans claim shows how much he adores his mum, Kate.

The Princess of Wales and her children released portrait sketches they drew of each other after spending time together being creative. Kate alongside Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Louis completed the exercise aimed at fostering a “moment of connection”.

Prince Louis’ sweet portrait drawing features an incredible detail that royal fans claim shows how much he adores his mum, Kate.

The four images appear to be drawn in a variety of mediums from charcoal to ink. While it remains uncertain who drew what, the caption on the X, formerly Twitter post appears to correlate with the order in which each portrait is shown. And royal fans believe the drawing in red ink has been created by six-year-old Louis and could show mum, Kate.

They’ve pointed out that the young prince may have been so eager to get his portrayal correct, he has even included his mum’s beauty spot just above her top lip in the drawing. It has also been pointed out that his subject could also have been his aunt Pippa Matthews, who also has a similar mark to older sister Kate.

The release of the drawings comes as the Wales family are reportedly on holiday together on the Caribbean island of Mustique during the school half-term break. The drawings are related to the princess’s Shaping Us Framework initiative, aimed at increasing awareness of social and emotional skills.

Alongside the artwork posted on the princess’s official social media accounts is the commentary: “…Shaping Us Framework describes the social and emotional skills which start to develop in early childhood. These skills are key throughout our lives, shaping who we are, how we manage our thoughts and emotions, how we communicate with and relate to others, and how we explore the world around us.

Kate recently visited the National Portrait Gallery to join children taking part in the Bobeam Tree Trail, the art attraction’s interactive project based on the princess’ framework. The trail encourages young children to identify the emotions of the people portrayed in the paintings and to create their own self-portraits – something they can also do at home as part of the project and which the princess completed with her children.

The princess wrote the foreword for a report published to mark the launch of the framework and described how modern life was leaving many feeling “isolated and vulnerable” during troubled periods, resulting in “poor mental health, addiction and abuse” that was “devastating” for those affected and society.

The solution is to “develop and nurture” social and emotional skills from the moment people are born, which are the “bedrock of any healthy, happy society”, but this must be a priority for people to “thrive”, it said.
