Prince William and Kate Middleton’s three kids—Prince George (7), Princess Charlotte (5) and Prince Louis (2)—recently made their red carpet debut. Although we originally thought that Louis is the spitting image of George, that all changed when we saw this side-by-side photo with his grandpa, Michael Middleton.

It all started last week when the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge took a break from their Royal Train tour to attend a special pantomime performance at the Palladium Theatre in London with their three children. Shortly after photos from the event surfaced online, royal aficionados were quick to point out the uncanny resemblance between Prince Louis and Michael.

Yes, Prince Louis is much younger than his grandpa, but he has several of the same facial features. Everything from his round face to his kind eyes looks identical to Michael.

During the appearance, the Cambridge family walked the red carpet in coordinating ensembles. Kate wore a stunning floral midi dress, which featured long sleeves and a fitted silhouette. Princess Charlotte donned a similar outfit—but instead of flowers, her dress was plaid.

William opted for a navy-blue suit that complemented Prince George, who wore black pants and a striped sweater. Last but not least, Prince Louis was seen wearing a simple blue shirt, which is likely a hand-me-down from his older brother.

Welp, they grow up so fast.
