Princess Kate and Prince William are set to make a major decision on Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis, according to GB News’ Royal Correspondent.
As the Princess of Wales remains out of the public eye, the couple need to decide if their children will attend the King’s birthday parade, Trooping the Colour.
Trooping the Colour is traditionally held every June to celebrate the sovereign’s birthday with senior members of the Royal Family in attendance.
In the second episode of GB News’ new royal podcast The Royal Record, GB News’ Royal Correspondent Cameron Walker and Digital Royal Editor Svar Nanan-Sen discussed the King’s birthday parade.

Svar noted that Prince Louis often “steals the show” during the parade with his “cheeky” behaviour and asked Cameron if he thinks we will see the young royals this year.
Cameron said: “I suspect we probably will because we saw Prince George with his father at the FA Cup Final at the weekend.
“So William’s clearly okay for them to be out and about and the Trooping is something they’ve done pretty much every year.
“I suspect they probably would do it without their mother as well. Everyone loves seeing cheeky Louis on the balcony.

“The Queen disclosed that he’s a little bit of a handful as we perhaps have seen in previous years.”
In 2022, Prince Louis was pictured holding his ears on the balcony during a part of the flypast as part of Queen Elizabeth II’s platinum jubilee celebrations.
Cameron continued: “I think it would be nice to see the royal children on that balcony because it has been a pretty tough six months for the Royal Family and I think the British public would really appreciate seeing them.
“But it is clearly up to William and Catherine- they are very young children and if it is too much for them with the princess’s condition I suspect the British public won’t be too upset.

“We’ll understand why we’re not getting to see those children on the balcony but we’ll just have to wait and see.”
The Royal Family never publicly confirm whether the children will be on the balcony at Trooping the Colour ahead of time, but they have confirmed that King Charles will be attending the parade.
After the announcement of the General Election last week, there was speculation as to whether the King’s parade would go ahead as the Royal Family issued a statement saying engagements would be postponed that “divert attention” from the campaign.
However, on Tuesday it was confirmed by the army that the Number 9 Company, Irish Guards, had been chosen to troop their colour.
