Kate Middleton was spotted blowing a kiss to her restless four-year-old son, Prince Louis, as the family watched the Jubilee Pageant during the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee celebrations.
The young prince quickly won over royal fans with his lively personality, pulling a series of amusing faces while sitting beside his mother in the royal box. In one sweet moment on Sunday, as Louis glanced at Kate during the long day of festivities honouring his great-grandmother, the Duchess of Cambridge blew him a quick kiss before showing him the event programme to keep him engaged.
Earlier in the week, Louis had already stolen the show on the Buckingham Palace balcony during the flypast. He entertained everyone – including the Queen – with his hilariously grumpy expressions and even clamped his hands firmly over his ears as aircraft roared overhead.
On Sunday at the Platinum Jubilee Pageant, the four-year-old continued his star turn. He was seen clenching his fists, sticking out his tongue, waving his arms, placing a hand over his mother’s mouth, and standing up in his seat for a better view of the spectacle. He later moved across to sit on his grandfather Prince Charles’s lap, where the Prince of Wales pointed out different parts of the parade to hold the little boy’s attention.
Seated directly behind the family was Mike Tindall, who kept Louis entertained by pulling funny faces of his own. At one point the former England rugby player gestured to his eyes, signalling he was keeping watch over the youngster, which made Kate chuckle.
Social media users were delighted by the scenes. One wrote: “Such a lovely sweet gesture.” Another added: “Catherine is such a caring and sweet mum.” Further comments included “Prince Louis being iconic as always,” “Prince Louis’ facial expressions are as legendary as ever,” and “Prince Louis deserves his own meme section! I can’t with how expressive his face is!! Love you little bug!” Several fans also praised Mike Tindall’s efforts, with one noting: “Unfortunately for Prince Louis, he can’t be mischievous because Mike will make sure he behaves.”
