Prince George doesn’t make many public appearances each year, and when he does, it’s almost always with his siblings Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis in tow. But on Monday, May 5, the future King got to attend a special celebration with his parents in honor of the 80th anniversary of VE Day. While Charlotte, 10, and Louis, 7, joined the Royal Family for a parade and balcony appearance earlier Monday, only Prince George attended a tea party honoring veterans after the event.
George, who turns 12 in July, wore a smart navy suit and blue tie as he chatted with World War II veterans at the event, which was hosted by his grandpa, King Charles, and Queen Camilla. In videos shared on X by Kate Mansey, royal editor at the Times, the pre-teen leans forward to listen to the conversation as Prince William chats with a man sipping tea.
