Prince Louis, 7, Hilariously Copies Big Brother Prince George, 11, Flipping His Hair on Live TV
Prince Louis is growing up looking up to Prince George — and having some cheeky fun along the way! Prince Louis clearly has his big brother on his radar — and isn't above having a little fun about it! On May 5, Prince William and Kate Middleton brought their three children — Prince George, 11, Princess Charlotte, 9, and Prince Louis, 7 — to a surprise public appearance at the start of the royal family's VE Day commemorations. The outing marked the children's first official royal event of the year as they joined their parents, grandfather King Charles and other family members for a military parade and patriotic flypast at Buckingham Palace. During the military procession down The Mall, cameras caught a delightfully relatable brother moment: as George casually flipped his hair, his younger brother, Louis, immediately mimicked the move with an exaggerated gesture of his own.

Watching closely, Louis quickly followed suit — either inspired by his big brother or cheekily copying him — with an exaggerated flick of his own. But while George's hair stayed put, Louis wasn't quite as lucky. Just seconds later, the 7-year-old let out an expressive sigh and tried to blow his bangs away as they flopped right back into place. It was a small but charming glimpse into the bond between the Wales brothers — one future King, the other clearly enjoying every second of playing the little brother role! The lighthearted moment was reminiscent of a similar scene at The Big Help Out following King Charles' coronation in May 2023, when George flipped back his hair after catching his reflection of a car window. The snippet was within a quick clip on TikTok that went viral with over 750,000 views, and connected to when Princess Kate would fix George's hair when he was younger.

Prince Louis' honest thoughts on flypast caught in touching comment to Kate Middleton

More info Prince Louis was visibly thrilled as he witnessed an impressive flypast from the Buckingham Palace balcony this afternoon. Alongside siblings Prince George and Princess Charlotte, his parents Prince William and Kate Middleton, and many other royals, little Louis joined in commemorating VE Day today. A march by NATO allies and 1,300 UK armed forces personnel along the Mall unfolded before the Royal Family, igniting a week-long celebration of the 80th anniversary of the end of World War II in Europe. The young prince, who turned seven just last month, was characteristically energetic and animated, with a lip reader capturing his charming exchanges on the balcony. Jeremy Freeman noted Princess Kate prompting her youngest with: "You excited?" to which an enthusiastic Louis responded: "Yes. Over there, Red Arrows!" As the renowned aircraft ripped across the sky, seven-year-old Louis couldn't help but exclaim: "Yeah, yes! That's so loud." He went on to make a heartwarming four-word remark, saying: "What a wonderful day." Kate reciprocated her son's delight, laughing along with him: "Yes, ha ha." Louis' particular intrigue with the display might stem from a very personal aspiration. Last year, in 2023, the young prince expressed his dream to become a fighter pilot. During a conversation at The Big Help Out over Coronation weekend, when a volunteer suggested he might wish to be an artist when he grows up, Louis stood firm on his ambition, asserting: "No, I want to be a fighter pilot." (Image: (Image: SKY NEWS)) Earlier in the day, young Prince Louis was caught on film attentively dusting off his father William's right shoulder. The charming action did not go unnoticed by royal fans who flocked to social media commenting on the delightful scene, labelling it "so adorable". Adding to the day's amusement, Louis also had a playful moment where he imitated his older brother George. Seconds after George adjusted his hair, Louis copied the gesture. After the parade, George joined his parents at a veterans' tea party, engaging with 101-year-old Royal Engineers veteran Alfred Littlefield, who served during the D-Day landings. With a smile, Prince William greeted the veterans, expressing how "very important" it was for George and the "next generation" to connect with and learn from the experiences of those who served in wartime. George displayed great interest during the conversations, prompting William to mention to veteran Douglas Hyde that his son was "very keen" to ask questions about his service. After their chat, Mr Littlefield's granddaughter Samantha Davidson, 58, from Denmead in Hampshire, recounted to PA: "The Prince said George is very interested in finding out about the veterans. George even asked my grandfather how old he was during his service." She relayed that George even inquired about her grandfather's age during his time in service. The King and Queen are "looking forward" to the week's events, and Buckingham Palace has expressed hope that "nothing will detract or distract from celebrating with full cheer and proud hearts that precious victory and those brave souls, on this most special and poignant of anniversaries", showing immense respect for the surviving veterans.
