Phil Dampier told Fabulous: “I’m sure he will receive some wonderful presents for his 11th birthday. “I’m sure ponies [which can cost £3,000], rifles, fishing rods and expensive toys are all an option. “He may even be straying towards an interest in music, and perhaps receive an instrument.
“Certainly King Charles would be delighted if he showed an interest. “But the most important thing is that he is surrounded by a loving family.” The royal expert added that Prince George could get a homemade cake from Princess Kate, who previously revealed to Mary Berry that she often stays up "until midnight" making them for her kids.

Kate Middleton's 'golden rule' with George, Charlotte and Louis KATE'S key rule for Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis is about kindness.
According to HELLO! Online's Royal Correspondent: "Based on observations of photographs of Princess Diana at the time, and the current Princess of Wales, they are both very affectionate with their children. "Kate is often seen holding her children's hands or picking them up for cuddles when they were smaller. "There are often lots of comforting gestures, such as a pat on the back or stroking their hair.
When interacting with other children on her public engagements, Kate often crouches down to their level to engage with them – something that Diana would often do." When she's at the family's home of Adelaide Cottage in Windsor , despite her royal status, insiders say Kate is just like any other "normal mum". A friend explained that behind closed doors, the 42-year-old is "very chilled at home" but definitely not a pushover and will tell the kids off when needed.
They told PEOPLE : "It's a normal, busy family home with kids running around and knocking things over. There's no airs and graces. "She is doing that to help her children be more grounded and keep their reality in check.
That's what really matters to her." “George will have a smashing birthday party with friends and maybe some of his cousins. “But the best present he could possibly get is the continued recovery from cancer of his mum, who is clearly a lot better, and that will rub off on George and his brother and sister.
