Prince Louis melted hearts at Trooping the Colour as he stole the show at a royal occasion once again this weekend.
The five-year-old made his way to Horse Guards Parade from Buckingham Palace on Saturday (June 17) in a carriage. He travelled alongside his royal siblings Prince George and Princess Charlotte, as well as his mother Princess Kate, and Queen Camilla. His father Prince William and grandfather King Charles rode ahead on horseback.
And those watching the ceremony at home who were hoping for another instalment of hijinks from the young royal while he was on display were not disappointed.
Prince Louis at Trooping the Colour
Louis was dressed similarly to his nine-year-old brother George for the occasion. They wore matching navy suits, white shirts and red ties – but Louis was kitted out in red shorts while George was in trousers.
Charlotte, eight, was also smart in a a white dress with red trimming. But cameras also picked up on other aspects of Louis’ appearance beyond what he wearing. He was also snapped holding his nose, pulling faces, pointing at the sky and fiddling with his hair during the carriage ride.

“Prince Louis can always be relied upon to be Prince Louis,” insisted someone else.
