Kate Middleton Doesn’t ‘Worry’ About George, Charlotte, and Louis’ Behavior in Public: ‘She Loves to See Them Being Kids’
Kate Middleton’s not stressing when Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis step out publicly. The Princess of Wales reportedly doesn’t “worry” about her and Prince William’s children being on their best behavior every time they make a public appearance. Instead, she’s happy to see them “being kids.”
Kate doesn’t stress about Charlotte, Louis, and George’s behavior in public
According to OK! magazine, Kate “doesn’t worry” about the Wales kids being perfectly well-behaved when they’re out and about.
“Kate doesn’t worry about their behavior too much,” an insider told the outlet. “She loves to see them being kids.”
Trooping the Colour on June 15, 2024, in London, England, marked the Wales family’s first appearance of the year. And also Kate’s, as she’s been out of the spotlight due to her ongoing cancer treatment. (Prior to that, they were all seen together on Christmas Day 2023.)
George, Charlotte, and Louis rode in a carriage with their mom, as they’d done in years past. Later, they joined their dad, William, and other royals on the Buckingham Palace balcony to watch military planes fly overhead.
Possibly the biggest royal family event of the summer and maybe even the year, Trooping the Colour meant all eyes were on Kate—and William, George, Charlotte, and Louis by extension—after the 42-year-old paused royal duties in light of her March 2024 cancer diagnosis.
“Energetic” Louis, who turned 6 in April 2024, “clearly was unable to contain his excitement at being at a public event,” the insider said. (Louis is known to go viral for his antics.)
Meanwhile, Charlotte “is a doting big sister,” they said. “She keeps Louis in line when needed. She’s very proper about these things.”
‘Let’s take a break’ is Kate’s ‘secret code’ for when George, Charlotte, and Louis misbehave
The simple phrase “Let’s take a break” was previously reported to be Kate’s “secret code” for calming George, Charlotte, and Louis down in public.
According to Tom Quinn, a royal author and commentator, the Wales kids know when their mom utters those words, it means something.
“The children know these few words carry far more weight than we might imagine,” Quinn wrote in Gilded Youth, a book about growing up in the British royal family.
“It’s been drummed into the children that when Mummy [sic] says, ‘Let’s take a break,’ she actually means, ‘This is very serious. And if you don’t stop mucking about and embarrassing me, there will be consequences when we get back to the palace,’” a former staffer told the author.
George, Charlotte, and Louis going viral for their behavior
Each of the Wales kids has gone viral at one time or another for their behavior. George, who turns 11 on July 22, 2024, once went viral for his excitement over a helicopter. On another occasion, he went viral for enjoying a candy cane during the holidays.
Charlotte made headlines at Wimbledon in 2023 while sitting courtside with George, Kate, and William. Think: Sunglasses and hands behind her head. She also went viral for crying over the death of her great-grandmother, Queen Elizabeth II, at the monarch’s 2022 funeral.
Last but certainly not least is Louis. He’s gone viral for his behavior more times than his siblings in recent years. Louis chatted with the late queen on the balcony, made silly faces, and, more recently, playfully blew out a candle at Kate’s Christmas carol concert.
