On Monday, Prince William and Kate Middleton joined the Scouts for a day of volunteer work, and they brought all three of their children along with them, putting Prince George, Princess Charlotte , and Prince Louis to work.
We’re using the word “work” lightly here — from the footage that has been shared, it seems like they all were having a lot of fun.
Louis was the star of the behind-the-scenes video the royals shared.

It’s hard to deny that 5-year-old Louis was definitely the center of attention that day, and as usual, he was doing his own thing. At one point, Kate told him to fill up a wheelbarrow with dirt and bring it back, and he was out of there so quickly that it seemed clear he had a plan of his own!

It’s clear that royal fans believe that Louis is truly giving Will and Kate a run for their money.
“Cute and by far the most entertaining of the bunch,” one person tweeted . “That being said, Prince Louis is a bloody handful.”
This isn’t the only message expressing this sentiment. As Express pointed out, the headlines about Louis’ cheekiness have been nonstop since the Queen’s Jubilee in 2022.
Now, royal fans are speaking out in Louis’ defense.
He wasn’t being “a rebel” he just wanted to put his handprint next to his mum’s. When a clip of this moment came out, it was a little out of context.

After Louis was called a “rebel” after people viewed more footage from The Big Help Out, many fans on Twitter immediately came to his defense.
“He’s cute and the fact that grown up people are criticizing him for acting his age is very disturbing,” one person wrote .
Another added , “Everyone wants to label him as the next Harry so badly they edit things out of context to fit their narrative.”
Louis seems to be like any 5-year-old.

Sure, he might be a member of the royal family … but the fact that he acts his age is a sign that Will and Kate are allowing him to have as normal a childhood as possible, given the extraordinary circumstances he was born into.
Let Louis live!
