The highly esteemed Princess of Wales, Kate Middleton, divulged that Prince Louis, her magnificent five-year-old son, experienced deep distress at missing the prestigious Wimbledon tournament. It seems that the young prince had been diligently practicing as a ballboy in preparation for the event. Accompanied by her illustrious husband, Prince William, and their two eldest offspring, Prince George and Princess Charlotte, Kate Middleton attended the men’s final on Sunday at the renowned All England Club. Both George and Charlotte were captivated by the thrilling matches, visibly expressing their enthusiasm by joyfully punching the air when Carlos Alcaraz claimed his momentous victory over Novak Djokovic in a heart-stopping five-set match. Unfortunately, little Louis, the youngest scion of the family, was disheartened by his inability to join them, despite actively training as a ballboy for this very occasion.
Upon their arrival at SW19, alongside their two children, Kate Middleton candidly shared with Ella Ottaway, the esteemed caretaker of the All England Club’s youth program, the extent of Louis’ disappointment at being excluded from the event. She revealed, “Louis was very upset he wasn’t coming today.” It is evident that the young prince has been completely absorbed in the world of tennis, honing his skills in the art of ballboy duties. This year holds particular significance as it marks Princess Charlotte’s inaugural Wimbledon experience, while Prince George had the privilege of attending the event last year. It is marvelous to witness their keen interest in the sport.
During their conversation, Kate Middleton also mentioned that Charlotte has familiarized herself with the intricacies of scoring. After their enlightening exchange, a sixteen-year-old ballboy named Joel disclosed that Louis earnestly attempts to emulate their poise and seriousness. Joel remarked, “He tries to practice standing and emulating our composed demeanor, both at the back of the court and next to the esteemed players.” Prince Louis has consistently succeeded in capturing attention during royal engagements in the past, whether it be cheekily sticking his tongue out at his mother or dramatically covering his ears on the iconic Buckingham Palace balcony. During the Coronation event, he openly demonstrated his support for his grandfather by exclaiming, “Yaaaay Say king. Yaaaay king,” as confirmed by renowned lip-reading expert Jacqui Press.
He has also been observed eagerly pointing at devoted royal fans while whispering to his dear sister, Charlotte, as they gracefully departed. However, it is plausible that Prince Louis was unable to attend Wimbledon yesterday due to age restrictions, being a tender five-year-old. This did not dampen the spirits of the Wales family during their outing to witness the men’s final and celebrate the remarkable victory. The charming princess, alongside her adoring son and daughter, enthusiastically cheered for Carlos Alcaraz, beaming with joy as she handed him his well-deserved trophy.
According to the official Wimbledon website, children under the age of five are not required to have a ticket, but they are unfortunately prohibited from entering the esteemed Show Courts, including the Centre, No.1, No.2, No.3, Court 12, and Court 18. While Louis may have had to watch the tournament from the comfort of his home, he did have the pleasure of enjoying a family outing on Friday. The royal family, consisting of Prince Louis, his parents, and his siblings, embarked on a visit to a captivating military air show in Gloucestershire. During this engaging excursion, the family had the honor of touring the colossal C-17 transporter aircraft, which had previously transported the late Queen’s remains before her funeral in September of last year.
At one captivating moment during the tour, Prince Louis, accompanied by Princess Charlotte and Prince William, paused by a display board, thoroughly engrossed in learning about the aircraft’s rich history. Standing beside his beloved sister, Prince Louis engaged in a delightful conversation with members of the RAF. However, his joyous expression transformed into a brief moment of distress upon hearing the deafening roar of an airplane taking off from the airfield. In reaction, he instinctively covered his ears with his tiny hands and emitted a slight cry. The young prince proceeded to search for his caring parents, momentarily seeking solace. Yet, Louis quickly regained his composure and redirected his attention to the captivating images on the display board. This incident, reminiscent of his grumpy ear-covering during his recent appearance at Trooping the Colour in June, signifies his sensitivity to loud sounds.
In May, Prince Louis expressed his desire to follow in his esteemed father’s footsteps, aspiring to become a pilot one day. His ambitions demonstrate a deep admiration for his father’s honorable profession. With his unwavering passion for aviation and his consistent ability to captivate hearts, Prince Louis certainly possesses the potential to achieve greatness while leaving a lasting legacy.
