In 2018, during her youngest child’s christening at the Chapel Royal at St. James’s Palace, Princess Catherine of Wales was overheard telling the Archbishop of Canterbury that Prince Louie was “very relaxed and peaceful,” and she hoped he would stay that way.

However, judging by his antics during the Platinum Jubilee in 2022, the princess may have unknowingly tempted fate.

The then four-year-old royal was anything but calm, stealing the spotlight with his energetic and playful behavior.

In recent months, Princess Catherine’s careful planning appears to be the reason behind Prince George and Princess Charlotte attending prominent royal events without their younger brother.

This year, the elder siblings accompanied their parents to significant sporting events. Prince George joined his father, Prince William, at the Euro 2024 final, while Princess Charlotte attended the men’s Wimbledon final with her mother. Meanwhile, Prince Louie was kept at home, raising questions among royal fans.

Despite his limited public appearances, Prince Louie’s excitable and endearing personality has already won over a legion of royal fans. During the King’s Birthday Parade, his adorable antics stole the show. Standing on the Buckingham Palace balcony, he was seen swaying his shoulders and hips to live music, much to the amusement of his mother, Princess Catherine. Princess Charlotte attempted to speak to her brother, but he was too absorbed in his impromptu dancing. At one point, Prince Louie appeared to be performing a lively Highland dance, delighting onlookers. Meanwhile, Prince George stood composed beside their mother, unfazed by his younger brother’s cheeky behavior.
