Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis have made their first official visit to Scotland, with a trip to the Commonwealth Games.
The Wales children accompanied the Prince and Princess of Wales to the penultimate day of the sports tournament to watch a netball game.
It is the first time they have appeared in public in Scotland, although they have travelled privately including to stay at Balmoral each summer.
They joined spectators for the penultimate day of the games in Glasgow, meeting families and members of the public as well as cheering on competitors.

The couple, known by the titles the Duke and Duchess of Rothesay in Scotland, will also meet Team Wales athletes and their families on Saturday.
The Prince and Princess are both competitive when it comes to sports and have enjoyed a light-hearted public rivalry in everything from football penalties to rowing on public engagements throughout their 15 years of marriage.
In 2012, they were photographed hugging and cheering on athletes at the Olympic Games in London. They previously attended the Commonwealth Games in Birmingham in 2022.
Before this year’s games, the Prince met five Team Wales competitors – lawn and indoor bowler Ross Owen, blind para bowler Julie Thomas and her guide John Wilson, and weightlifters Madaline Connelly and Catrin Haf Jones – when he visited the London Welsh School in Hanwell, west London.
