Prince George fights off sneeze during national anthem, cracks up with mom Kate Middleton
Prince George fought off a sneeze during the national anthem at the 2026 Trooping the Colour.
In a video posted to X by the Telegraph, the 12-year-old seemingly suppressed a sneeze as the royal family stood at attention on the balcony of Buckingham Palace while watching the Royal Air Force’s flypast.
As the song finished, Prince George put his hands over his nose and mouth and sneezed, taking a moment to laugh about the incident with his mom, Kate Middleton.
The Princess of Wales sweetly put her hand on her eldest child’s back as she, George, Prince William, 43, Princess Charlotte, 11, and Prince Louis, 8, waved goodbye to the crowd and exited the balcony.
Earlier in the day, Middleton, 44, let out a sneeze herself at Horse Guards Parade.
Despite George’s small moment, it was his younger brother, Prince Louis, who once again stole the show at this year’s festivities.
The youngest royal made a series of animated faces while standing next to his family, including King Charles, 77, and Queen Camilla, 78.
One photo saw the 8-year-old making a shocked face as he looked into the sea of spectators.
Other pictures showed Louis accompanying his mom during this year’s carriage procession.
Prince Louis is known for his silly antics, as last year he continued to wave at the crowd far after his family members lowered their own hands, promoting George to tell him to “stop” — as seen on X.
In 2024, Louis showed off his dance moves and he circled his hips around to the band’s music.
That time, it was his sister who was spotted telling him to “stop.”
“He’s a cheeky monkey — a typical third child,” an insider told People in 2022. “It’s nice that the world got to see him enjoying himself.”
Trooping the Colour is held each June to celebrate the official birthday of the British sovereign.
More than 1,400 soldiers, horses and musicians gather on Horse Guards Parade in London to celebrate their leader.
This year, Middleton paid tribute to her late mother-in-law, Princess Diana, by sporting a powder blue Catherine Walker coat dress.
The look was very similar to a Catherine Walker outfit worn by Princess Diana — who died at age 36 in 1997 — during her son Prince William’s first Easter service in 1987.
