There were plenty of sweet moments during this year's Trooping the Colour, many of which included Prince Louis, seven.
Whether he was copying his grandfather, or getting scolded by his eldest brother, the young royal seemed to have the best time at the King's annual service. However, one moment might have gone unnoticed, and that was when another family member kept the youngster entertained during the service.
In a sweet moment, the Duchess of Edinburgh could be seen playing with Louis. Although her head was obscured by Princess Charlotte, it appears that the two royals were pulling silly faces at one another, with Louis's mouth seen wide open as he enjoyed time with his great-aunt.
Fans enjoyed the cute moment, as one said: "I love how close The Edinburgh's and Wales' are," and a second added: "What a shame we can't see her face. I bet she's pulling one at Louis in return to his!"
Sophie's absent childrenSadly, both of Sophie's children, Lady Louise Windsor, 21, and James, Earl of Wessex, 17, were absent from this year's Trooping the Colour.
Sophie flew solo for the eventLady Louise is usually present at this important event, but she's currently busy with plenty of schoolwork as she continues her studies at St Andrews University. James has missed the event for the past three years for similar reasons, with the teenager in the midst of the GCSE season.
Louise, who is in the third year of an English degree, was also absent during both the Easter celebrations and VE Day this year. She is said to be not only studious but also active in several societies, including the University Officers' Training Corps.
Royal bondSophie is growing close to Prince William and his family, and the royals put their bond on full display last week when they undertook a joint engagement in Cornwall.
The pair were seen sampling local chutneys and sipping shots of gin in the food and farming tent. The Prince joked: "We've come from the chutneys straight into booze. I can see what today's going to be like."
William and Sophie undertook a joint engagement last weekWilliam is a patron of the Royal Cornwall Agricultural Association, the charity behind the three-day event. Sophie is its vice president and also patron of the Association of Show and Agricultural Organisations. They both arrived at the event to loud cheers from the public.
