Prince Louis looks just like grandfather Michael Middleton, say fans

Prince Louis has sparked a wave of comparisons to his maternal grandfather, Michael Middleton, following his public appearance at Trooping the Colour last week. The young royal joined his father, Prince William, at the annual ceremony held to celebrate King Charles's official birthday.

The resemblance caught the attention of royal fans on X, who were quick to share their observations.

'The double of his grandfather'

One fan wrote on X: "Prince Louis is the double of his grandfather Michael Middleton and growing up fast." Another echoed the sentiment, adding: "He's the spitting image of grandpa Michael."

A third fan went further, writing: "I ALWAYS feel we are watching Michael grow up as we watch Prince Louis grow up." A fourth added: "I bet Mike Middleton is like yes one of those royal babies looks like me!" before adding: "Definitely a Middleton that one!" Another reply read: "Yes!! I've always thought this! Seems only fair right? Talk about great genes!"

Third in line to the throne

Prince Louis is third in line to the British Royal throne and the youngest child of Prince William and Kate Middleton.
