The royal family just welcomed a delightful new addition. Prince William and Kate Middleton shared a heartwarming update about their latest furry friend, joining their children Prince George, 12, Princess Charlotte, 11, and Prince Louis, 7.
In a sweet May 1 Instagram post alongside a charming photo of a dog resembling an Irish Setter, the couple announced, “Welcome to the family Otto! 1 today.”

Otto joins other beloved pets in the household, including their dog Orla, a black cocker spaniel who arrived in 2020. The family also enjoys time with their guinea pigs, though William has humorously noted that cleaning their cage often falls to him when the kids forget.

This love of animals runs deep in royal tradition. The late Queen Elizabeth II was famously devoted to her corgis and dorgis, caring for more than 30 over her long reign and often taking them on daily walks herself.
