Playing his part. Prince George looked all grown up as he participated in the coronation of grandfather King Charles III on Saturday, May 6.
The 9-year-old served as one of four Pages of Honor during the procession through the Nave of Westminster Abbey in London. He walked behind Charles, 74, in a sharp red coat and black pants, holding onto the train of a long robe as the king approached the Chair of State.
As the eldest son of Prince William and Princess Kate, who were also in attendance for the royal ceremony, George is second in line for the British throne. His participation in Charles’ coronation makes him the youngest future monarch to be formally involved in such a ceremony. (Charles was just 4 years old when his late mother, Queen Elizabeth II, was crowned in 1953 and did not have an official role in the festivities.)
Along with George, the Prince and Princess of Wales are the parents of Princess Charlotte, 7, and Prince Louis, 5. The little ones arrived at Westminster Abbey with their parents on Saturday, with Louis waving to passersby from the backseat of the state car.
William and Kate’s eldest son is “very protective” of his younger siblings, a source exclusively told Us Weekly in July 2022, adding, “[He] goes out of his way to help his mother with the household chores, especially when it earns him extra time on electronics!”
Despite his high placement in the line of succession, George is a “well-grounded, down-to-earth little boy” and a “hard worker” with similar interests to any other child his age. “He’s very sociable and can chat for hours about his favorite soccer players, plus he loves rugby, cricket, all forms of sports really,” the insider told Us.
