Vincent of Denmark is the royal world's latest obsession. The 15-year-old is the third child of King Frederik and Queen Mary, and was photographed alongside the rest of the Danish royal family at his sister's graduation. Princess Isabella was the guest of honor, but her younger brother didn't fade into the background.

Social media users have noticed he's not a little kid anymore, that he's "growing up way too fast." They've also mentioned that he's pretty cute."Is it just me, or is Vincent growing up way too fast? Feels like just yesterday he was this little kid, and now, all of a sudden, he's turning into a young man. Every time we see him he looks better. He's got this amazing smile, so much charm, and he's the perfect mix of Frederik and Mary," wrote a user.

Another fan chimed in: "Let's be honest... Vincent is definitely on track to become a real heartbreaker. He's got his mom's smile, his dad's charm, and that natural confidence that makes him impossible not to notice. It's wild how fast he's grown up, but one thing's for sure: a lot of hearts are going to be in trouble once Prince Vincent flashes that smile. And the best part is he probably has no idea."

What's Vincent's role in the Danish royal family?

As third in line to the throne, Vincent plays a supporting role in the royal family, with his official duties shrinking down the line as the family tree grows. Right now, he's focused on school, and his teenage years are unfolding privately. He's also the godson of King Felipe of Spain

He mostly steps into public view for family events, like his confirmation, where King Felipe of Spain was among the guests.

As he gets older, Vincent hasn't lost any of his warmth, especially toward his sister Josephine, his constant companion since birth. 

The four kids of King Frederik and Queen Mary are famously close, but his relationship with his twin is in a league of its own. After his confirmation, he said it "means everything" to have her by his side. "I'm incredibly happy to have Fine [her family nickname] next to me, and to go through everything together," he said of his younger sister, born 26 minutes after him.
