The unveiling of the Christmas portrait by the Prince and Princess of Wales prompted accolades from royal enthusiasts, particularly emphasizing the cohesiveness of the royal nuclear family.
Chloe Friedmann, a columnist for Le Figaro Madame, playfully anointed the 10-year-old as the 'budding James Bond,' as reported by The Sun.
Friedmann dissected the debonair appearance of the young lad, adorned in a white Ralph Lauren shirt paired with black pants.
Labeling George as "self-assured" and an "apprentice gentleman" rather than a "naughty schoolboy," the French journalist lauded the 'budding James Bond' for his relaxed posture, hand nonchalantly in his pocket, in an open Ralph Lauren shirt, and impeccably styled hair.
In her words, "He exudes self-assurance, mastering the art of the sideways glance, signaling a notable transition into adolescence for the elder Wales son."
Friedmann also observed the rapid maturation of the "serious pre-teen," noting his height approaching that of his mother and emphasizing the uncanny resemblance to his father, Prince William.
"In this observation, one cannot help but acknowledge that the young prince undoubtedly inherits his father's charisma, swiftly captivating the crowds."
