Other members of the royal family will be in attendance throughout the week, including Prince Harry and Duchess Meghan, who have returned to the U.K. for their first public visit since stepping down as senior members of the royal family in 2020. From today until Sunday, the unprecedented Platinum Jubilee celebrations are recognizing Queen Elizabeth's historic 70 year reign. Louis arrived at the 2022 parade in a carriage accompanied by his older siblings, Prince George and Princess Charlotte, as well as mom Kate Middleton and Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall.

The littlest Cambridge, Prince Louis, wore the same sailor suit his dad Prince William wore 37 years ago to the Trooping the Colour celebrations.

He last appeared with his family during a surprise red carpet appearance in December 2020—he was likely deemed too young to join his older siblings at Easter Sunday services and the memorial service for Prince Philip at Westminster Abbey. The three siblings seemed to enjoy themselves as they drove past the crowds, with Louis and Charlotte enthusiastically waving to the gathered spectators. When he appeared, the officers and sailors who were all assembled on deck to see him, cheered, and seemed delighted," Victoria wrote in her diary.

Trooping the Colour saw mega crowds gathering in the streets of London for this special Platinum Jubilee edition. And what a day it's been.

Prince Louis opted for a sailor-style white and navy top and really enjoying all the fun of the event. There was no mistaking just how stunning the Duchess of Cambridge looked – regal poised and full of confidence that she has found in recent months, starting with that stunning gold dress at the Bond premiere. Looking stunning as ever the Duchess had her hair tied back into a sleek plaited bun and showed off her natural beauty with simple easy to replicate make-up look, consisting of a light layer of barely-there foundation with memorizing on trend smokey brown eye and pink lipstick. The crowd adored seeing Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis who loved waving to the crowds so much his elder sister had to get him to stop – Prince George is camera shy. Meghan Markle addressed Savannah Phillips and Mia Tindall from a balcony at Horse Guards Parade in an apparent attempt to quieten the children. Shelia and Jan visited all the way from Australia where The Queen is head of state.

Indeed, Prince William and Prince Harry have both spoken movingly about the deeply traumatic effect their mother’s death had and continues to have on them. Even before then, he was known to have had a pretty wild temper. They both had affairs which were aired to the world – and to him during the teenage years that are awkward enough for the rest of us who don’t have the unremitting spotlight of the world’s media to deal with. She came to the throne at only 25 – and so has had a long time to grow into it. And then came the unutterable, irrecoverable tragedy of his mother’s violent, tragically premature death when Prince William was only 15. That job – being king – is a pretty daunting one.

Prince William and Kate Middleton were all smiles attending the Service of Thanksgiving on Friday as part of Queen Elizabeth II's Platinum Jubilee.

“The Queen greatly enjoyed today’s Birthday Parade and Flypast but did experience some discomfort,” a spokesperson for the royal family said in a statement on Thursday.

Royal watchers hoping to see the Sussexes and Cambridges reunited at the national service of thanksgiving were disappointed when the couples remained apart.

This prompted a wave of speculation online and in the media over who this person could be. at the moment, I'm here focused on these guys [at the Invictus Games] and these families and giving everything I can, 120 percent to them to make sure that they have the experience of a lifetime. But we . . . you know, we're on . . . we're on different paths." "Yes, I think especially over the last two years for most people, have they not missed their families? Of course I do. They're two little people." With the Sussexes and Cambridges now in the same country and attending the same events, commentators have highlighted the number of missed opportunities for some sense of public reconciliation between the two, with some claiming it is the royal wives who have as much work to do as their husbands.
