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.” 

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.” 

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.
