Prince Louis

The backlash against the Duchess of Cambridge over her four-year-old son's behaviour at the Queen's Platinum Pageant is absurd.

I read the books, I listened to the podcasts, I consulted the experts, and still that kid had tantrums in public and said inappropriate things to strangers. I have three kids, one of whom never needed discipline at all, one of whom was easy to manage, and one of whom was damn nigh impossible. As the headlines screamed, “Kate cannot control her children!“, I remembered the days I could not control mine.

The lively four-year-old prince attempts to hush his mum and pull funny faces, proving quite the distraction for the Duchess of Cambridge.

* Indomitable, dutiful – how the Queen was determined to reign on her parade * The best royal looks from the Platinum Jubilee festivities Prince Louis proved to be quite the distraction from the Queen’s Jubilee festivities for his mum, Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge.

On several occasions, he's seen sticking his tongue out, being distracted by his cousins in the seats behind, and even covering his mum's mouth when she gently tries to curb his behaviour - moments that will have resonated with anyone who's ever looked after a young child. At one point, William and Kate have a discussion and then Louis can be seen running along the seats to sit with his grandfather, Prince Charles, who manages to keep him entertained for a while. In adorable pictures and footage - some of which was shown during BBC One's live coverage - Louis can be seen pulling a series of faces and refusing to co-operate for his mother.

Prince Louis' silly expressions and interaction with his mother, Duchess Kate, were a highlight during Queen Elizabeth II's Platinum Jubilee.

His cheeky expressions mirrored Charlotte's viral photos from the inaugural King's Cup charity regatta in August 2019. She was formally crowned on June 2, 1953. The 4-year-old also tried covering his mother's mouth during the Platinum Jubilee Pageant.

Later he was sitting on the laps of both the Duke of Cambridge and the Prince of Wales. Louis’ first appearance of the weekend was on the balcony of Buckingham Palace on Thursday alongside the Queen and other members of the royal family. For the finale of the Platinum Jubilee Pageant, he joined his siblings, his parents, the Prince of Wales and the Duchess of Cornwall and the Queen on the balcony of Buckingham Palace. Abandoning all royal protocol, Louis screamed into the air while standing next to the Queen on balcony of Buckingham Palace on Thursday, and later pulled faces at his mother during the Platinum Jubilee Pageant on Sunday.

Tell me this isn't more royal coverage. Have we not all suffered enough? If his many and varied facial expressions over the marathon jubilee celebrations were ...

The internet has declared Louis “a mood” and his greatest hits have been collated into “tag yourself” collages of photographs, where you decide which of his facial expressions best represents you. Some blamed the prince for “showing up his mother”, especially during the minor meltdown when he held his hand over her mouth and stuck his tongue out at her. His epic fidgeting included puffed-cheek boredom, glaring, standing on his chair, covering his face with his hands, brandishing a cushion, crossing his arms huffily and some vigorous head-shaking. He dramatically covered his ears and roared, stuck his fingers in his mouth, looked thunderously disapproving as he saluted, and grimaced at the sky. You might have also enjoyed Louis’s smörgåsbord of reactions to the interminable and utterly weird jubilee pageant yesterday.

He was widely declared to have stolen the show at Thursday’s trooping the colour, which he watched from the Buckingham Palace balcony.

"Thank you to everyone who turned out to show their gratitude to The Queen and her inspiring 70 years of leadership. The pint-size prince made royal watchers giggle Thursday when he stole the show at the Trooping the Color parade. They added eyeball emoji to the tweet for emphasis.

Kate Middleton and Prince William made a joke about son Prince Louis having an incredible time at Queen Elizabeth's Platinum Jubilee celebrations.

When they arrived to watch the Horse Guards' Parade, Prince Louis joined his siblings and cousins in hanging by the windows to catch the action. Prince Louis attended Trooping the Colour on Thursday, taking part in his carriage ride debut alongside siblings Prince George, 8, and Princess Charlotte, 7. (The same year Louis' uncle, Prince Harry, made his own Trooping the Colour debut!)

“This is without a doubt your best work,” one viewed gushed.

Prince William and Kate Middleton have acknowledged the wave of commentary around their youngest child's behaviour at the Queen's Platinum Jubilee.

"If that's the lack of discipline and boundaries they're raised with, I guess that's how you get adults like William," another wrote. "This is exactly why Meghan and Harry don't want to make their children available for public consumption. "And to be clear – I'm criticising the parents here. "Thank you to everyone who turned out to show their gratitude to The Queen and her inspiring 70 years of leadership. Meaning parents need to set boundaries n stick to them." There's a whole gap between robotic and straight-up badly behaved.

The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge have joked about their youngest son's cheeky antics during the Queens's Platinum Jubilee celebrations.
