The first official photo of Prince William and his wife Catherine's baby son George.
THE first official pictures of Prince George since leaving the hospital were leaked online hours before the palace was ready to release them.
The images, which were officially released on Tuesday at 8am (AEST), were leaked on Twitter several hours before.
In a break with tradition, the images were taken by the Duchess of Cambridge's father Michael Middleton.
The intimate pictures were taken earlier this month at the Middleton family home in Bucklebury, west of London.

In his first TV interview since becoming a father, Prince William opens up about diaper changes, sleepless nights and managing baby George. Mana Rabiee reports.
The release of the images follows William describing his son as a little "rascal", who reminds him of his mischievous brother Harry.
The Duke of Cambridge sat down with CNN at his home at Kensington Palace to speak about how he is enjoying being a new father to baby George.
"He's a little bit of a rascal, I'll put it that way," William said. "He either reminds me of my brother or me when I was younger, I'm not sure, but he's doing very well at the moment."
"He's growing quite quickly actually. But he's a little fighter - he wriggles around quite a lot and he doesn't want to go to sleep that much."

William admitted he was "looking forward to going back to work" in order to catch up on some sleep.
His wife Catherine gave birth to little George on July 22. William spoke of his pride at showing off his new son to the world from the steps of the hospital.
"I think more shock was the feeling I felt, but I was on such a high anyway, and so was Catherine, about George that really we were happy to show him off to whoever wanted to see him," he said.
"As any new parent knows, you're only too happy to show off your new child and, you know, proclaim that he is the best looking or the best everything. It's nice that people want to see George - I'm just glad he wasn't screaming his head off the whole way through," he said with a laugh.
William received praise for the relative ease in which he was able to secure his son's car seat but says it was not beginners' luck.
"Believe, me it wasn't my first time," William said, "and I know there's been some speculation about that. I had to practice, I really did - I was terrified it was going to fall off or the door wasn't going to close properly."

He said it was really important to him to drive his family away from the hospital
"I am as independent as I want to be, same as Catherine and Harry. We've all grown up differently to other generations and I very much feel if that I can do it myself, I want to do it myself," he said.
"There are times where you can't do it yourself and the system takes over, or it's appropriate to do things differently. But I think driving your son and your wife away from hospital was really important to me."
Despite being the future king of England, William said that didn't mean he got out of nappy duty.

"I did the first nappy, it's a badge of honour," he joked. "I wasn't allowed to get away with that. I had every midwife staring at me, saying: 'You do it, you do it.'"
William said the last month having George around has already changed him.
"The last few weeks for me have been a very different emotional experience, something I never thought I would feel myself. And I find, again it's only been a short period, but a lot of things affect me differently now," he said.
