Kensington Palace has declined to reveal who gave the prince the bracelet.

George has had an eventful few weeks. He watched England in the Euro 2024 final alongside his father at the Olympiastadion in Berlin, Germany, last weekend, which they lost 2-1 to Spain.

He and his nine-year-old sister Princess Charlotte also joined William at a Taylor Swift concert at Wembley Stadium at the end of June to celebrate their father's 42nd birthday.

The royals were pictured smiling with the US singer in a backstage selfie.

Swift's boyfriend, American footballer Travis Kelce, described the royal children as an "absolute delight".
