Prince George and Prince Louis shared an adorable brotherly moment during Trooping the Colour on June 14, 2025. As they rode in a carriage with Princess Catherine and Princess Charlotte, a lip reader revealed seven-year-old Louis asked George, “Should I wave?” to which the 11-year-old replied, “It’s up to you, I can’t believe how sunny it is.” The pair then waved in unison at the cheering crowds. Later, on the Buckingham Palace balcony, Louis enthusiastically waved at the Red Arrows flypast until George nudged him to focus, explaining the RAF’s Poseidon aircraft.
The event also marked King Charles III’s first Trooping the Colour since his cancer diagnosis, with royals wearing black armbands in honor of Air India tragedy victims. Princess Anne made a notable return to horseback riding after her injury, while Prince William led the parade in his Welsh Guards uniform. The brothers’ playful bond was also seen weeks earlier at VE Day celebrations, where Louis mimicked George fixing his hair. These lighthearted moments highlight the young royals’ growing comfort in the public eye amid grand traditions.
