Prince Louis' most iconic VE Day moments - in photos | HELLO! (2025)

If there is one person that we all look forward to seeing at any of the Royal events, it’s Prince Louis. The youngest of the Wales’ children is a constant source of entertainment during official events, and the military procession to mark the 80th anniversary of VE Day was the perfect occasion for him to steal the show, as usual.

While Charlotte is always the most serious of the three, taking a leaf out of the Princess Royal's book, and George takes on more responsibilities as the future King, including talking with veterans at Buckingham Palace tea party after the procession, Louis is still enjoying being the baby of the family.

MORE VE DAY

Yesterday, the whole family came out to enjoy the parade, and George, 11, Charlotte, 10, and Louis, seven, were front row on the Queen Victoria Memorial next to their parents. The little royals were wearing coordinated navy blue outfits and looked as smart and adorable as ever.

Prince Louis did not disappoint and treated royal fans to several meme-worthy moments during the event. Here are the best ones:

In need of comfort

The Prince was spotted hugging a fluffy hot water bottle. The weather certainly played up during the event, but Princess Kate and Prince William were clearly prepared for anything.

Yawning on duty

The day was long and the events numerous, so the littlest member of the Wales clan was spotted yawning during the military procession – how can we blame him?

Getting Dad’s attention

Royal drama king

At one point, the seven-year-old appeared to be overwhelmed, holding his forehead with a dramatic (and adorable) expression.

Conducting duties

The music gave Prince Louis a second wind, as he was seen conducting the band with enthusiasm. Or perhaps he was trying to tell them to keep it down – either option feels entirely on brand.

Always cheeky

True to form, Louis was spotted sticking out his tongue in a moment of playful defiance. The Prince really does know how to keep us entertained.
