When making public appearances, even the smallest royals have to look as serious as possible. But the lively nature of the mini royals also always creates funny moments. In one or two photos they make careless faces and make it clear: the heirs to the throne are just small, playful children.
The best moments of the royal kids in review of the year
On the first day of this year’s New Year’s Day race at Cheltenham Racecourse, Lena Elizabeth Tindall openly shows that she has no particular interest in watching the horse race. Dangling in her pretty red coat the second daughter of Queen’s granddaughter Zara Phillips and her husband Mike Tindall at the racecourse fence site. The 5-year-old sticks her tongue out as far as she can. With a lot of patience, mom Zara tries to convince little Lena to take part in the New Year’s race in the spectator stands.
Windy times for Prince Oscar
In 1973 King Carl XVI ascended. Gustaf the Swedish throne. 50 years later, his own grandson steals the show during the celebrations for his throne jubilee. Because people in Sweden also know how to make funny faces: Prince Oscar presents himself with a stormy hairstyle at the birthday parade for King Carl Gustaf. The son of Crown Princess Victoria and her husband Daniel braves the windy weather at this public event and gives us a funny expression. The royal fans were only looking at Oscar that day.
Prince Louis puts the jet engine into gear
The most legendary Royal Kids photo of the year comes from Great Britain. The first Trooping the Color, the traditional military parade, will take place on June 17th King Charles instead of. The third and youngest offspring of the British royal family, Prince Louis, is a big fan of the aircraft parade: On the balcony he puts the Daniel jet engine into gear and emulates the Air Force pilots with the appropriate expression on his face. He stands in the middle of his older siblings Prince George and Princess Charlotte and is clearly enjoying the spectacle. The parents of the three royal children, Catherine, Princess of Wales, and Prince William, do not seem to be bothered by their little one’s grimaces and are also enjoying the event.
Princess Charlotte is full of enthusiasm at Wimbledon
Almost a month later, on July 16th, the men’s final at the Wimbledon Championships took place live in the stadium. Princess Charlotte seems to be a big fan of the famous tennis tournament: she and her older brother George are cheering from the stands. Clenched fists raised high and a shout of encouragement, giving a view of the princess’s cute gaps in her teeth. It’s rare to see such a grimace on the sweet eight-year-old’s face.
