Third-in-line to the throne Prince George
Just last week gorgeous George made his first public engagement in Wellington, where he attended a special playgroup arranged in his honour. George was in the company of other babies who were all born within weeks of him, but it was the third-in-line to the throne who stole the spotlight with his royal presence.Doting father Prince William has joked about his "bonny lad", telling a group at a reception that George was "at his most vocal at 3am, as you may have noticed".Little George was named the most influential infant by My1stYears.com — the personalised baby retailer that ranked the top ten celebrity tots of the noughties. The list was compiled according to the baby's marketing potential, their future standing in adulthood and the net worth of their parents, among other factors.
