Prince Louis had none.
The 4-year-old royal was pictured tugging on Kate Middleton’s arm in a valiant attempt to get her to stop talking and keep going as her mum waved to well-wishers outside Saint Louis. The Church of Mary Magdalene on Christmas Day.
The outing marked the first time the Prince and Princess of Wales’ youngest child joined his parents and siblings – Prince George, 9, and Princess Charlotte – for the royal family’s traditional church service.
Although Louis apparently attended the service last year, COVID-19 precautions prevented members of the royal family from attending the traditional service and saying hello to members of the public lined up outside.
Louis is quite the family couple who stole the show during the late Queen Elizabeth II’s Platinum Jubilee celebrations in June.
The memorably young made a host of silly faces during an appearance on the balcony of Buckingham Palace during the Trooping of the Color ceremony.
He then displayed a decidedly un-royal but very age-appropriate demeanor when he was caught putting his hand over his mother’s mouth watching the Platinum Jubilee Contest.
He also has managed to get into a tiff with his cousin, Lena Tindall, who pointedly refused to share candy with him.
William and Kate apparently recognized the rising star of the Jubilee celebrations.
In a roundup of Instagram photos from the four days of festivals, they wrote, “We all had an amazing time, especially Louis…👀.”
Louis wasn’t the only junior royal to make his Christmas debut this year.
Zara and Mike Tindall brought their daughters – Mia and Lena – for the service and the ride, although their one-year-old son Lucas stayed home.
Princess Beatrice attended with her stepson, Christopher Woolf, and her husband, Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi, while their one-year-old daughter, Sienna, stayed home. Beatrice’s sister, Princess Eugenie, was also present, as well as her husband Jack Brooksbank. They also left their baby, August, a one-year-old son, at home.
It’s certainly a bittersweet Christmas party for the Royal Family as it’s the first since Queen Elizabeth II died in September at the age of 96.
