Prince Louis Steals the Spotlight Again at VE Day Parade with Hilarious Royal Banter
Once again, Prince Louis has charmed the nation — and stolen the show — during the VE Day 80th anniversary celebrations in London, solidifying his place as the royal family’s most endearing and relatable seven-year-old.
As the UK honoured Victory in Europe Day with parades, military tributes, and solemn remembrance, it was the youngest Wales sibling who added an unexpected dose of humour to the historic occasion. While standing alongside his older brother Prince George, Louis delivered a now-iconic moment that left royal watchers grinning.
In true Louis fashion, the young prince’s cheeky personality shone through — this time with an expertly timed eye-roll and a slice of dry, royal wit. According to professional lip reader Nicola Hickling of LipReader Ltd, Louis leaned over to his father, Prince William, and asked with perfect deadpan delivery: “Isn’t this supposed to be fun?”
During the brief but amusing exchange, captured on camera as the Armed Forces marched by, Prince William reportedly said to his son, “They are grabbing their bars, isn’t it great?” to which Louis replied with understated honesty: “They are marching straight.”
It’s just the latest example of the young royal’s quick wit and unfiltered charm — and it’s safe to say, the public can’t get enough.
Prince William, ever the patient dad, attempted to keep his youngest son engaged in the moment, asking whether he could spot the troops turning or lining up. Louis, never one to miss a beat, replied with classic bluntness: “They’re going in a circle.”
It was a moment that every parent could relate to — even future kings aren’t immune to a sarcastic seven-year-old.
Unsurprisingly, Louis’ hilarious reactions lit up social media once again. One amused X user posted, “Oh, the baby brother eye roll. I think we shall hopefully continue to get Prince Louis antics much into the future.” Another simply wrote, “Prince Louis and his eye roll. Haha!”
Despite facing the emotional weight of recent family hardships — from the passing of his great-grandmother, Queen Elizabeth II, to his mother Princess Catherine’s ongoing cancer treatment — Prince Louis continues to bring light, laughter, and a much-needed touch of realness to royal life. With his quick wit, candid expressions, and undeniable charm, he’s quickly becoming the royal family’s most beloved scene-stealer.
