The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge’s youngest, Prince Louis, stole the show with his cheeky behaviour during his balcony appearances and the Jubilee Pageant on Sunday.

Mike said of the younger children: “It’s tough for them. They’re all young. It’s a long time.

“But as any parents knows you just do whatever needs to be done.

“Louis, he was just wanting to have fun. And my two are always mischievous so it’s trying to keep a lid on.

“There were a lot of sweets out back though, so there was a real sugar high.”

During the pageant on Sunday, Mike was seen entertaining Louis as the tot was spotted being cheeky.

Louis was seen putting his hand over mum Kate’s mouth before pulling angry faces at her.

Mike was pictured giving Louis the ‘I’ve got my eye on you’ sign as he pointed his middle and forefingers towards his eyes.

Fans who spotted the moment loved Mike’s hilarious reaction as one said: “Mike Tindall and Prince Louis… seems like the Duchess of Cambridge is used to them. So cute and fun!”
