The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge are celebrating their third wedding anniversary today[PA/AP]A spokesman has said the family will be celebrating the event privately as they recover from their hectic 19-day tour of Australia and New Zealand.
This will mark the royal couple's first anniversary with their nine-month-old son Prince George.
The Cambridges enjoyed a packed schedule on their trip, which included a sunset visit to Uluru, paying tribute to fallen soldiers on Anzac Day and a playdate for Prince George in Wellington.
His mother Kate claimed that the third-in-line to the throne had acquired an "extra fat roll" on the trip, as well as a fuller head of hair.

The tot received a plethora of gifts on the trip, include a personalised surfboard and an embroidered onesie.
Prince William and Kate Middleton wed in a lavish ceremony in Westminster Abbey in 2011, watched by an estimated two billion people worldwide.
Since then the royal couple has experienced several milestones, including the birth of their first son on July 22 last year and Prince William's career change as he left his job in the military to enrol in an agricultural management course at Cambridge University.
The Duke of Cambridge has since been taking on more royal engagements and helping out with parenting duties.
Although couples traditionally exchange gifts of leather for their third wedding anniversary, the Duchess has recently been spotted sporting several new pieces of jewellery, apparently from her husband.

The Duke and Duchess spent their last wedding anniversary apart as six-months-pregnant Kate visited Naomi House Children's Hospice in Hampshire, while William was away on duty in north Wales as an RAF search and rescue pilot.
Their first anniversary was equally low key, as the couple attended the wedding of one of Kate's school friends before spending the night at a £164-a-night local pub.
