Prince Louis delights crowd with an enthusiastic greeting at Trooping the Colour
The royal family members gathered on the landing to watch the Royal Air Force’s flypast on Saturday.

A video that was shared on X (formerly Twitter) showed Prince Louis continuing to wave to the crowd even when others stopped. The clip also showed Prince George noticing it and immediately touching his younger brother’s arm, and telling him to stop.

When the event finished, the rest of Prince Louis' family members turned to walk inside, but the seven-year-old couldn’t help but give one more gigantic wave over his shoulder while donning a huge smile.

Prince Louis has always been a fan favorite when it comes to his reactions.
In 2024, Prince Louis danced and moved his hips around while the band played, and Princess Charlotte was spotted telling Prince Louis to "stop," per the outlet.

Moreover, during Queen Elizabeth’s Platinum Jubilee celebrations in 2022, the young royal made a series of animated facial expressions throughout and garnered a round of laughs.
An insider told People back in 2022, "He’s a cheeky monkey — a typical third child. It’s nice that the world got to see him enjoying himself."
The June 14 event saw the Princess of Wales donning an aquamarine woolen coat dress by Catherine Walker, with ivory lapels and cuffs and a matching hat by Juliette Botterill, the New York Post reported. She completed her outfit with an Irish Guards regiment brooch and pearl drop earrings.

Meanwhile, Princess Charlotte wore a dress in a similar shade to her mother’s, accessorized with a diamond brooch, and had her hair in a braid, while Prince George and Prince Louis wore dark-colored suits.
Trooping the Colour is held every June to celebrate the official birthday of the British sovereign. More than 1,400 soldiers, horses, and musicians gather on Horse Guards Parade in London to celebrate their leader.
