The Cambridges appeared to acknowledge in their post that their youngest child, Louis, 4, stole the show at the jubilee. They ended their post by saying, "We all had an incredible time, especially Louis…," followed by an emoji of watchful eyes.
Louis put on his own show throughout the four days of celebrations, first riding with his siblings in a carriage at Trooping the Color and then appearing with the queen on the balcony of Buckingham Palace, where he hilariously reacted to military jets flying overhead.
