The royal family has been in the headlines for decades. After the tragic passing of Princess Diana in 1997, the world continued to pay close attention to the royals. Princess Diana left behind two sons, Prince William and Prince Harry. Prince William met his wife, Kate Middleton, and they now have three beautiful children. First, the couple had Prince George, followed by Princess Charlotte, and most recently Prince Louie.
Louis was born on April 23, 2018, at the same hospital where William was born, London’s St. Mary’s hospital. The prince, who emerged at around 11 a.m., was a healthy 8 pounds, 7 ounces. Beyond being the youngest of the Cambridge bunch, Louis is special in other ways, too. Louis is just fifth in line for the throne, preceded by grandfather Prince Charles, father William, and siblings Prince George and Princess Charlotte.
Louis is an unusual contender for the title of Duke of Edinburgh, as the late Prince Philip notably wanted his youngest son Prince Edward to inherit it, as the Daily Mail reports. In fact, prior to Prince Edward's marriage to his wife, it was officially stated that the Prince, lacking any royal dukedom or another title, would inherit his father's once Prince Philip had passed.
Beyond being the youngest of the Cambridge bunch, Louis is special in other ways, too. Louis is just fifth in line for the throne, preceded by grandfather Prince Charles, father William and siblings Prince George and Princess Charlotte. Interestingly, Louis was the first male-born heir who would not precede his older sister in the royal succession.
Being the baby of his family, Prince Louis is a fan favorite amongst the royals. Not only is he a darling little boy, but he is also one of the world's favorite royal family members. Through his photos over the years, you can tell that Prince Louis is the charmer of the iconic family.

A patented letter released in 2012 allowed the newly married couple, Prince William and Princess Kate, to give their children proper royal titles.
The public notice read, "The Queen has been pleased by Letters Patent under the Great Seal of the Realm dated 31 December 2012 to declare that all the children of the eldest son of the Prince of Wales should have and enjoy the style, title and attribute of royal highness with the titular dignity of Prince or Princess prefixed to their Christian names or with such other titles of honour."
Children grow up quickly, but photographs allow everyone to relive moments bygone. The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge have therefore taken to capturing their children's lives in photographs over the years.
As a result, there exist a number of cute and adorable pictures of their children that chronicle their growth. Today we especially focus on their youngest, Prince Louis, who has so far received less media coverage than his two elder siblings.
However, their 2021 photo was in stark contrast to the two before as it was taken during the summer on a family trip to Jordan. In the image, the royals donned summer clothing as they posed in front of a rock wall. However, their warm, family vibe was the same as always.
For his birthday this year, the young prince is seen in two photographs, both taken by his mother. In one, Louis is running towards his mother on the beach as he grins widely, and in the other, the handsome little boy is seen posing with a ball in his hand. The photos, uploaded onto the official Twitter account of the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, are captioned, "4 years old tomorrow!"

Most recently, Prince Louis charmed his way back to the top of people’s hearts during the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee. The Platinum Jubilee took place over a four-day bank holiday in June 2022 and citizens were encouraged to partake in several celebratory events.
On many major news outlets the young boy was the star of the show as he showcased his personality for the world to see.
A royal insider told People that Louis is something special. "He's a cheeky monkey — a typical third child," said the inside source. "It's nice that the world got to see him enjoying himself,” they added.
Another royal family expert told Marie Claire that Louis throughout the weekend we saw his many fun moods put on display.
"At times, we saw Louis grow irritable and while him playing up made for some very comical photos, Kate—and William too—were on hand to ensure their brood [behaved]," the expert said.
We also saw the young Prince put his mother to the test with some of his craziness in the stands.
From hugging Louis as he grew restless, to smiling energetically at the youngster—who was clearly loving the attention—as he performed alongside her, it was clearly important for Kate to engage with her children, especially as it would have been a very long day for them," that expert added.
Aside from being a main attraction of events from his fun and spunky personality, Prince Louis is growing up to be a fun, handsome, and go getter of a young child. We look forward to seeing what him, Prince George, and Princess Charlottte accomplish in their lifetime! Until then, we look forward to the fun and funny sassiness that they provide during royal family public events.
