Prince Louis is renowned for being the fun-loving, youngest child of the Prince and Princess of Wales. He’s charmed royal well-wishers with his cheeky antics and has provided some of the most memorable and adorable moments in recent royal history.
The six-year-old, who turns seven in April, most notably sparked sweet reactions at key royal events including Trooping the Colour, the late Queen’s Platinum Jubilee celebrations and his grandfather King Charles’s coronation celebrations.

HELLO! dipped into the archives and unearthed a black-and-white picture of a young Prince Charles – and the parallels between the monarch and his grandson Prince Louis are uncanny.

The youngster showed off his plucky side and sweetly jabbed his hands into the air – a move which caught the attention of his mother Queen Elizabeth II…

The nostalgic image closely resembles a photograph taken in June 2023 at Trooping the Colour showing an enthusiastic Prince Louis mastering a series of playful dance moves. Like his grandfather King Charles, Louis channelled the exact same energy.

Prince Louis’s photo of Kate
Earlier this month, Prince Louis sparked a sweet reaction when he took a photograph of his mother which was later shared by Kate to mark World Cancer Day. The charming snapshot showed the mother-of-three posing outside on a wintry day with her arms outstretched. She could be seen rocking a smart forest green longline coat and a stylish baker boy cap.

She included a caption that read: “Don’t forget to nurture all that which lies beyond the disease.” Concluding her message, Kate also signed off with a “C”.
In a nod to her son’s photography, the 43-year-old added a camera emoji, followed by the words “Prince Louis”.
Louis’ artistic skills went down a treat with royal fans. In the comments section of the post, one follower remarked: “I can’t believe that this photo was taken by Louis, that’s so sweet,” while a second added: “A beautiful image and message, looks like Louis has got his mother’s love for photography – a talented young boy!”
