Happy birthday to his royal cuteness Prince Alexander of Sweden! The little boy turned one on Wednesday, and to celebrate, the Swedish royal palace has released the most adorable set of portraits. Proud parents Prince Carl Philip and Princess Sofia feature in one of the family snaps, looking picture perfect as they cuddle their son. A second photo shows Alexander opening a present, looking very smart in a button-down shirt and navy trousers. The little Prince also posed outdoors, beaming widely at the camera to reveal his two top and bottom front teeth.

The beautiful photos were shared on Facebook and Instagram as well as the royal palace's official website. Fans were quick to compliment Alexander, with one writing: "What a smile and sparkling eyes, like his mother and father." A second posted: "Cute little boy! A real prince, now it's just the white horse missing."
