The platinum jubilee celebrations of Queen Elizabeth II, a four-day festival to honour her 70-year reign, kicked off on Thursday. However, what stole the show for viewers on the opening day was Prince Louis' reactions to the flypast over Buckingham Palace, which featured 70 planes from the Royal Navy, army and Royal Air Force.


Images that have now gone viral on social media show Prince Louis, wearing a sailor suit, initially waving at the planes and chatting to the Queen during the display. Soon, he is seen covering his ears due to the loud noise as the jets roared overhead during the event. 


Another image of Prince Louis, the youngest of prince William and Kate Middleton's children, appearing to yawn even as his siblings Prince George and Princess Charlotte looking on in excitement has also gone viral.



Louis, who was standing between his mother and the Queen, could also be seen with his elbows perched on the balcony, appearing a little disinterested in what was going on around him.


Earlier in the day, Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis made their carriage ride debut at Trooping the Colour, the annual public celebration of Queen Elizabeth's birthday.


The images of Prince Louis had netizens talking, with several users saying he stole th show. "Prince Louis chatting with the Queen is everything," one user said.


Another commented, "Prince Louis screaming crying at the planes being too loud will undoubtedly be my favourite Jubilee moment." "Prince Louis is a whole mood next to the Queen when the planes go past," a fourth user said.
