His Royal Highness Prince Gabriel celebrates his 19th birthday on August 20. On this occasion, the Royal Palace shares a new photo of the Prince. This photo was taken in July at the Château de Laeken.
Born in 2003, Prince Gabriel of Belgium is the second child of King Philippe and Queen Mathidle. He is second in line to the throne.
This Monday, August 22, Prince Gabriel will join the Royal Military School (ERM), following having passed all the admission tests: the medical, psychotechnical and sports tests, as well as the mathematics, Dutch and French exams.
In September 2021, the Prince began preparatory training in England where he was enrolled at the “National Mathematics & Science College” in Warwickshire.
At the Royal Military School, he will follow training in social and military sciences, in Dutch, and will be part of the 162nd class.
