Young royal’s keen eye on aircraft hints at budding passion for aviation
Prince Louis once again stole the spotlight during this year’s Trooping the Colour parade — but this time, his attention-grabbing moment came with a potential clue about his future.
The seven-year-old royal, beloved for his playful energy, was seen waving cheerfully during the carriage ride with his mother, Catherine, and his siblings. He later delighted crowds with an extended farewell wave from the Buckingham Palace balcony.
However, body language expert Judi James noticed a more focused side to Louis this year. Speaking to The Mirror, she said, “Prince Louis’s body language on the balcony suggested he’s grown from the playful member of the royal firm into a fully fledged plane-spotter.”
James observed that Louis carefully watched each aircraft during the RAF flypast, even turning to Prince William as if to identify them. His father’s approving nods and Catherine’s proud smiles suggested he had correctly recognised the planes.
With both William and King Charles having trained as pilots, Louis’s fascination with the aircraft may hint at a future career path shaped by family legacy.
As always, Prince Louis left fans charmed — and this time, possibly inspired — by his growing curiosity and quiet confidence.
