Young Prince William and Prince Harry were seen with their father, King Charles, in a sweet throwback snap shared by the Royal Family to celebrate Father's Day on Sunday.
The Princes are in their early teens in the photograph, which looks like it could have been taken at Balmoral, the Royals' Scottish estate, frequented yearly by them over the past century or more.
King Charles – then Prince Charles – could be seen donning a kilt, which is traditional Scottish dress, with a green jumper, socks and a sporran.
The 74 year old King and his sons were standing on some rocks as Harry, now 38, pointed to something off-camera, whilst Prince William, now 40, and their father looked on.
The Royal Family also shared a snap of King Charles with his late father, Prince Phillip, and another of Queen Camilla with her late father, Major Bruce Shand.
The post, which was shared to Instagram and Twitter, was captioned: "To Dads everywhere, we wish you a special Father’s Day today."
Royal fans were quick to comment, as one wrote: "I LOVE these pictures! Happy Fathers' Day!"
Another commented: "Aw the picture with Harry," whilst another wrote: "Harry and William," with a love heart emoji.
A fourth said: "Happy Father’s Day to his majesty his dedication to his boys and the country is amazing."
Whilst King Charles once shared a close bond with both his sons, his relationship with Prince Harry has endured some testing times over the past few years.
Since Prince Harry and his wife Meghan Markle stepped down as official working members of the Royal Family in 2021, they moved to California, where they now reside with their two children, Prince Archie, four, and two year old Princess Lilibet.
They went on to level a number of accusations at the Royal Family in a now-infamous interview with Oprah Winfrey, and later, they released a six-part documentary with more jibes to the royals.
But perhaps the most damning of all was Harry's memoir, Spare, which was released in January 2023, and came loaded with bombshell claims about the royals.
It included a particular accusation that Prince William "physically attacked" Harry, grabbing him by the collar and "knocking him to the ground".
"It all happened so fast," Harry wrote in the book. "So very fast. He grabbed me by the collar, ripping my necklace, and he knocked me to the floor. I landed on the dog’s bowl, which cracked under my back, the pieces cutting into me.
"I lay there for a moment, dazed, then got to my feet and told him to get out.”
In an interview, following the release of the book, Prince Harry said that his relationship with King Charles and Prince William "couldn't be worse" and insisted that he "genuinely" wants them both "back in my life".
