‘He’s a Character’: 18 Photos of Prince Louis That Prove He Is a Royally Good Time

The youngest son of Prince William and Kate Middleton, has proven to be quite the funny guy

Every time Prince William and Kate Middleton step out with their youngest son, Prince Louis, the internet rejoices.

The young royal, who turned 8 in April, has become known for pulling some of the funniest faces during events such as Trooping the Color, the late queen’s Platinum Jubilee, and even his grandfather’s coronation. But it seems like it’s not just the internet that delights in Louis’ spirited appearances. His parents and siblings have also been captured getting a kick out of the 8-year-old’s hilarious antics.

“He’s a character, but he’s a very good boy,” Prince William once described his last born, per the Daily Mail. “He likes to wind his brother and sister up.”

Below, see some of his silliest moments caught on camera through the years.

Even when he was still getting the hang of how to wave, a teeny-tiny Prince Louis got a good laugh out of his parents during the Trooping of the Colour ceremony in 2019.

The little guy nuzzled his clearly tickled mom, as they attended the Platinum Pageant on The Mall in June 2022.

He later turned his attention to the festivities; after all, his great-grandmother’s Platinum Jubilee was a cause for celebration.

… but after getting a little too silly with his mom (see top photo), he decided the view was probably better from Grandpa’s lap.

By the time Louis attended Trooping the Colour 2022 (in his dad’s vintage sailor suit, no less!) Kate had mastered the art of Louis wrangling while looking regal.

But even more of an expert than Kate? Queen Elizabeth, who, with plenty of practice being a great grandmother, was able to pay no heed to Prince Louis’ funny antics as the flypast went by Buckingham Palace.

His exaggerated blowing of the candle got a knowing smirk from Kate Middleton as the family attended the Christmas service at at Westminster Abbey in 2023.

For Louis’ first official royal engagement in 2023, the five-year-old joined his parents and siblings to volunteer at the Big Help Out in Slough, and took the opportunity to bring plenty of personality to archery and s’mores making activities.

Suffice it to say, the young Prince might have some notes. An animated Louis hilariously matched his sister’s questioning look as the royal siblings took in the festivities of 2024’s Trooping the Colour.
