Prince George and Prince Louis’ brotherly bond got the spotlight on Christmas Day.
The brothers took part in an annual royal tradition in which members of the royal family accompany the monarch on a walk to the Church of St. Mary Magdalene for Christmas morning service. Before church, however, it is customary that the family walks down a path flanked by a crowd of well-wishers, who often bestow gifts and flowers on the royals.
During this year’s walk, 10-year-old George received a large brown teddy bear dressed in a striped sweater. In a video captured by a fan and posted to TikTok, George brought his gift straight to five-year-old Louis, who was shyly waving to the crowd, to show off the stuffed animal.
“Aw, Prince George—he was so happy receiving that bear,” one person commented on TikTok. Another user said, “Ha ha, so amazing to see the future king so happy getting a teddy bear! Well-raised children appreciating the little things!”
The same video also captured a sweet moment between Princess Charlotte, eight, and her cousin, Mia Tindall, nine, the daughter of Zara and Mike Tindall. After Mia alerted Charlotte that a well-wisher wanted to give her a bouquet, Charlotte appeared to gesture to Mia to take the flowers for herself.
Fans praised this sweet interaction similarly in the comments, one writing, “She’s so sweet—she lets Mia get the flowers when it was hers. These kids are adorable!”
On the Christmas walk with the Wales kids were their parents, Prince William and Kate Middleton, as well as grandparents King Charles III and Queen Camilla. Other royal family members in attendance included Princess Beatrice, Princess Eugenie, Prince Edward, Duchess Sophie, Princess Anne, and Zara Tindall.
