It has been a jam-packed weekend for the royal family as celebrations for the Queen's Platinum Jubilee were in full swing. From pageants and parties to the star-studded concert, the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge have been spotted at the many of the events, along with their three children.

Across the four-day Bank Holiday weekend, Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis have captured the nation's hearts with their various antics. Prince George and Princess Charlotte were seen at Trooping the Colour, went on a surprise visit to Cardiff and stole the show at the Platinum Party at the Palace concert.

During the spectacular concert which saw the likes of Queen + Adam Lambert, Dianna Ross and Eurovision's Sam Ryder perform to millions, the Duke of Cambridge had some reassuring words for his eldest son, according to a professional lip reader.

As they took their seats in the royal box outside Buckingham Palace for the concert, William and George could be seen fixing bands to their wrists, which had been left on their seats, reports The Mirror.

Professional lip reader John Cassidy said Prince William had some instructions as well as reassurance for his son George.

As he struggled with his band, the Duke of Cambridge reportedly said: "You’ll have to do it like that... ok let’s do mine, then I’ll help you."

But it wasn't just William and Kate on hand to support the kids, William's cousin Zara Tindall, who was sitting behind them was too.

As Princess Charlotte struggled with a cushion that was left on her seat, Mr Cassidy says Zara asked her: "Do you want that taken off as well too?, yes? ok."

The young Cambridges were out with their parents on Sunday, June 5, sitting in the royal box for the Platinum Jubilee Pageant.

But it was younger brother Prince Louis who stole the show yet again just days after his adorable appearance at Trooping the Colour. He had a cheeky warning from Mike Tindall, who sat behind the young prince after he was snapped putting his fingers in his ears and throwing a cushion around.

He was also spotted pointing at Kate making her laugh, wriggling around in his seat, pointing out the things he had spotted in the parade and putting his hands over his eyes. Among the other royals in the royal box were Prince Charles and Camilla as well as Princess Anne and Vice Admiral Sir Tim Laurence.

Princess Beatrice was also there with her husband Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi, as well as Princess Eugenie and her husband Jack Brooksbank. Anne’s son Peter Phillips was joined by his children Savannah and Isla, while Zara and Mike Tindall and the Duke and Duchess of Gloucester also made an appearance.

The Queen was not in the royal box for the Platinum Jubilee Pageant and neither were Prince Harry and Meghan Markle.

Her Majesty did however delight the nation as she made an appearance on the Buckingham Palace balcony to mark the end of the Jubilee celebrations.
