How old is Prince Louis?

Prince Louis Arthur Charles is four-years-old and was born on April 23, 2018,

Kate and William announced they were expecting their third child on September 4, 2017.

Why is Prince Louis not at the Queen's funeral?

The four-year-old is likely to be considered too young to attend the ceremony of his great grandmother.

Meanwhile, George and Charlotte followed their parents, the Prince and Princess of Wales, walking side-by-side behind the late monarch's coffin as it was carried by the military bearer party.

They were followed by their uncle and aunt, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex.
