King Charles and the rest of the royal family recently showed a united front on the balcony of Buckingham Palace for the VE Day 80th anniversary commemoration on Monday via NY Post. It comes days after Prince Harry addressed his estrangement from his family in a bombshell interview with the BBC.
The monarch was joined by wife Queen Camilla, Prince William, Kate Middleton and their kids Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis, as well as Sophie, Duchess of Edinburgh, Prince Edward, Duke of Edinburgh, Princess Anne, Princess Royal and Vice Admiral Sir Timothy Laurence.
They watched the flypast over Buckingham Palace to celebrate 80 years since World War II ended in Europe. A procession of 23 aircrafts, including the Red Arrows, flew overhead.
The royals waved to the massive crowd from the balcony. 7-year-old Prince Louis, known for his goofy antics at royal events, jokingly played the drums on the balcony’s edge, as per the Sun.
Beforehand, William, 42, and Middleton, 43, took their three kids to the Queen Victoria Memorial outside Buckingham Palace for the first ceremony honoring the 80th anniversary of VE Day.
Louis tugged on his dad’s military jacket as the family of five sat front row. The young royal also made several silly faces during the ceremony.
Over the weekend, Harry, 40, lost his appeal to regain taxpayer-funded security in the UK. The legal team behind the decision stated that it would not be appropriate for Harry — who attended the hearing in England last month — to have the publicly-paid-for security since shirking his royal duties in 2020.
The Duke of Sussex, who lives in California with wife Meghan Markle and their two children, reacted to the legal outcome in a statement to The Post, where he said that he “attempted to resolve this issue privately, even offering to independently cover the costs of necessary and effective police protection in order to keep me and my family safe.”
