Prince William and Kate Middleton Just Shaded Prince Louis in the Best Way Possible on IG

Queen Elizabeth’s Platinum Jubilee (celebrating her 70 years on the throne) had a lot of memorable moments. Despite Kate Middleton, Camilla-Parker Bowles and Meghan Markle all wearing matching hats or even Princess Eugenie sharing pics of little August’s first Trooping the Colour, we can all agree that one young royal completely stole the show: Prince Louis. With his funny facial expressions during the flypast ceremony and at the Platinum Pageant, he instantly became a meme on social media—and his parents have something to say about it.

After the weekend’s festivities came to a close, Kate Middleton and Prince William shared a few snapshots from the celebration on Instagram. Some pics included William attending the tree lighting at Buckingham Palace—while looking quite emotional during the event—and the queen’s surprise appearance at the closing ceremony on Sunday.

“What a fantastic weekend of celebrations. Seeing people across the nation coming together with family, friends and loved ones has been extremely special,” the caption read. “Thank you to everyone who turned out to show their gratitude to The Queen and her inspiring 70 years of leadership. From the crowds on the Mall to communities hosting street parties up and down the country, we hope you had a weekend to remember.”

The royal couple ended the message by calling attention to their youngest son, Louis, and his funny behavior over Jubilee weekend. “We all had an incredible time, especially Louis…[side-eye emoji].” (The SHADE!) The pair signed the message with their initials, “W & C.”

Keep being the comical king you are, Louis.
