Prince Louis Steals The Show At King Charles’ Coronation

The 5-year-old prince let out a big yawn and pointed out interesting things while seated in Westminster Abbey.

Prince Louis ensured all eyes were on him at King Charles’ coronation on Saturday.

The little one, who recently turned 5, joined his parents and his siblings ― Prince George and Princess Charlotte ― at Westminster Abbey in London for the event.

Prince William, the Princess of Wales, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis arrive at Westminster Abbey in London on Saturday, ahead of the coronations of King Charles III and Queen Camilla.

Louis was extremely well-behaved throughout the coronation, and sat between his mother, Kate Middleton, and sister (who were wearing matching headpieces for the big day).

Photographers captured Louis letting out a little yawn during the ceremony, and pointing out something he apparently found interesting to his sister.

Prince George was not seated with his family during the Westminster Abbey ceremony, as he snagged a role as one of Charles’ four Pages of Honour.

Royal watchers were over the moon to hear about Louis’ inclusion at the ceremony, as he often finds a way to steal the show (like he did at Queen Elizabeth’s Trooping the Colour last year).

Things understandably got a little too loud for the young prince at Trooping the Colour!

Louis also showed off more of his iconic antics last year at the Platinum Pageant, which was part the queen’s Platinum Jubilee celebrations:
