Thousands of people converged at Buckingham Palace to celebrate Queen Elizabeth II’s Platinum Jubilee. While many of the spectators enjoyed the flyover by the Royal Air Force, at least one member of the Royal Family did not.
Prince Louis, the 4-year-old son of Prince William and Kate Middleton, was not amused by the loud noises when he appeared on the balcony with his parents and the queen after the Trooping the Colour Parade, Us Weekly reported.
The toddler scrunched up his face and covered his ears as the jets roared through the London skies. That made him the darling of Twitter, as posters said they could relate to the boy’s facial expressions.
“Most days we are all Prince Louis,” one user tweeted.
Prince Louis appeared in a sailor’s suit worn by his father in 1985, The New York Times reported. He joined his siblings — brother Prince George, 8, and sister Princess Charlotte, 7 — on the balcony with their parents, along with Prince Charles and Queen Elizabeth.
