Royal children steal the show in adorable outfits
Our favorite princess and princes have once again stolen the show as they stepped out with their parents the Prince and Princess of Wales for the Coronation.
Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis were all grown-up as they took part in the royal Coronation Procession.
Prince George was seen wearing his Page of Honour scarlet tunic decorated with cold lace trim and blue velvet cuffs, with an open-fronted design, lined in silk, as he undertook a big role in the celebrations.
He also donned an ivory silk satin waistcoat trimmed in gold braid, with wool trousers and boots. The uniforms were originally made during the reign of Elizabeth II and have been retailored for the coronation
George served as a Page of Honour for King Charles and was tasked with holding the train of Charles’s regal robes as he entered and exited Westminster Abbey.
This honour is usually given to teenage sons of members of the nobility and gentry or senior Royal Household members.
In fact he’s the youngest future king to ever play an official role at a Coronation!
Charlotte’s outfit mimicked her mothers as she wore an Alexander McQueen dress with a cape in ivory silk crepe, with rose, thistle, daffodil and shamrock motifs.
The emblems also featured on her mother’s dress, and Charlotte also wore white strappy shoes and a crystal and silver thread tiara with diamond leaves by the same milliner.
Coronation of King Charles III latest
The historic Coronation of Their Majesties King Charles III and Queen Camilla will take place in Westminster Abbey today (May 6).

Her hair was gathered back in an elegant updo, just like Kate’s.
The princess celebrated her eighth birthday on May 2, the day before the Coronation rehearsal for which she wore blue, and the Prince and Princess released a gorgeous portrait of their daughter with the royal palace dog Orla.
Louis was seen wearing a Hainsworth Garter Blue Doeskin Tunic with specially designed lace work embellishment to the collar, cuffs and fronts, made by bespoke Savile Row tailors Dege and Skinner.
The youngster’s leg garment was black, complete with Garter Blue stripe.
He was looking much more mature than the cheeky little chap we’ve seen previously. But in a sweet moment he was seen holding hands with his older sister.
Blue is certainly the colour of choice this Coronation and with Kate hinting there would be a touch of blue in her outfit today, it’s no wonder Louis’s outfit followed suit.
The youngest prince is always a hit with the public, especially after his antics and animated facial expressions at the late Queen’s jubilee last year.
While he was too young to attend the Queen’s funeral last September, he was certainly an important part of the Coronation today.
The trio were snapped wearing blue when they arrived at Westminster Abbey with Kate and William on Wednesday morning for the rehearsal.
George was dressed in a blue suit and Charlotte, who celebrated her eighth birthday the day before, wore a blue dress and a cardigan.
There are a lot of big hats (and crowns, of course).
