Elizabeth II’s great-grandchildren often steal the royal show, but she always leaves them a small gift in the bedrooms when they visit her.
The lights of the platinum anniversary of Britain’s Queen Elizabeth II have long since gone out, but comments about the behavior of her great-grandchildren at the celebrations of the 70th anniversary of her coronation do not stop. Some American media have even prepared a horoscope of the youngest son of the heir to the throne, Prince William, who cheered the whole world with casual behavior.
4-year-old Louis stole the show on the first day of the 4-day festivities. Standing next to the 96-year-old queen on the balcony of Buckingham Palace during an impressive parade, he did not stop making faces – his face alternated between delight and boredom. He even covered his ears as the most powerful British planes flew over the square. It seemed that at one point Elizabeth II was saying something to him, as well as his mother, but this did not particularly impress the youngest prince in the family of Kate and William.
The boy looked even more emotional at the final carnival. It was filmed
to pull the hair of one of his cousins, to suck a thumb,
to crawl on his mother and cover her mouth with his hand while she tries to tame him. The rebellious Louis disturbed the order in the royal box to go to his father, and then to his grandfather, Prince Charles, who shook him to his knees in time with the music. And although his behavior was far from the good manners of monarchical heirs, no one in Britain criticizes the child. Louis even earned a nickname – the Prince of Smiles.
However, black human rights activist Shola Mos-Shogbamimu wrote on Twitter that if Prince Harry’s son Archie had done such a thing, his mother Megan Markle would have been “sent to hell” by the media and his bad behavior will surely be linked to hers. black descent, while Kate is easily forgiven for such things.
According to the New York Post horoscope, Louis was born to be a star and will probably take the place of a universal favorite vacant by his uncle Prince Harry. The most interesting thing is that the boy has an identical disposition of the stars at birth with those of his great-grandmother. “The queen is supposed to see her younger, wilder self in him and is glad that he will come of age in an era of less formality and more freedom, but with the patriarchal advantages and privileges of being born rich white a dude of royal descent, “the paper said.
Indeed, with the exception of the eight-year-old Crown Prince George, who is quite shy by nature, the Queen’s other great-grandchildren always demonstrate the playfulness of young children, even at official events. Their sister, Princess Charlotte, the fourth in line to inherit the throne, has twice been photographed during official events and once even urged them not to follow their family. But that was a few years ago. During the anniversary, the 7-year-old girl showed a good knowledge of the rules. Some commentators called it obvious
boss in the children’s trio
He told his brothers George and Louis when to wave to people and when to keep their hands close to their bodies. Well, he was only tempted to eat gum in the royal lodge.
The British queen enjoys 4 children, 8 grandchildren and 12 great-grandchildren. Shortly before the death of her husband Philip, the two were photographed with some of the youngest. For them, Elizabeth II is Gan Gan. That’s how her own eldest son Charles started calling her when she was still learning to speak. Then his children, and now his grandchildren.
Royal correspondents claim that Her Majesty insists that the little ones always clean up after themselves when they play in the palace. He adheres to good manners and is glad that Crown Prince George is behaving properly. The two have a common passion – raising dogs.
Kate Middleton revealed that all three of her children love meeting her great-grandmother. “She always leaves them a small gift or something in their room that shows her great love for the family,” said Prince William’s wife.
Elizabeth II became a great-grandmother for the first time in 2010.
Then her eldest grandson Peter Phillips welcomed his daughter Savannah. With the exception of Harry and Megan’s two children, all of the Queen’s other 10 great-grandchildren live in the United Kingdom. The youngest of them is 8-month-old Sienna Elizabeth Mapelli Motzi, daughter of Princess Beatrice.
Unlike Prince William and Kate’s three children, who are forced to live in the spotlight, the Queen’s other great-grandchildren have a fairly free childhood. Most combine in their names either something from their great-grandmother Elizabeth or their late great-grandfather Philip.
Harry’s daughter, Lilibet, bears Her Majesty’s affectionate childish name. She was born in the United States a year ago and came to London for the first time for the anniversary. Many commentators predicted that one of the cutest photos of him would probably be of the queen with her. They even jokingly titled the information about Harry’s family’s return for the festivities: “When Lilibet meets Lilibet.” However, such a photograph never appeared. The Sun wrote that the queen did not allow their first meeting to be filmed because she was worried that the footage could be used in films and books that Harry and Megan were making in America for their escape from the British royal family. They hurried back to the United States before the end of the festivities in London, after which they published a photo of little Lillibet celebrating her first birthday at their house near Windsor Castle, where the Queen lives. However, her first cousins George, Charlotte and Louis were not at the children’s party, as they were attending official events for her great-grandmother’s anniversary at the same time.
So obviously William and Harry’s children will follow different paths in their lives, as their fathers have done for the past two years. But surely each of them draws a different future for the crown, as their footsteps will be watched under a magnifying glass and compared to the longest and most successful reign of their great-grandmother.
