Caught off guard: 5 of the funniest royal family photos that will lift your spirits

Finally, something has happened that fans of the Windsor family have been looking forward to. In June 2024, the Duchess of Cambridge, Kate Middleton, made her first public appearance in 6 months. The wife of Prince William, who was diagnosed with cancer, attended the Trooping the Colour military parade in central London. It has also become known that soon, after preventive chemotherapy, she will be attending celebrations more frequently. In honor of this great news, we'd like to take a look at a selection of what we think are the funniest photos of the princess and other members of the Windsor family.

During public appearances, royals demonstrate their knowledge of etiquette, in particular, they try to hold back their emotions. The status obliges! Does it always help them to look perfect in photos? No, it doesn't. They are human beings, just like the rest of us. Yes, the wind can "do" their hair in its own way. Or, for example, the paparazzi capture the funny facial expressions of Their Majesties with their lenses... Read more in the article by OBOZ.UA.

1. Princess Charlotte's greeeting

In the fall of 2019, on the Isle of Wight (England), Duchess Kate Middleton and her daughter Princess Charlotte attended The King's Cup regatta (a sporting event in a series of sailing or rowing races). Then the girl noticed the photographer and showed her tongue. At first, this made Catherine laugh, but then she probably remembered the royal protocol and reprimanded her daughter.

2. Camilla's lush styling

In the spring of 2011, Prince Charles and Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall (now the King and Queen of Great Britain) visited Morocco as part of a royal tour. Then, on April 5, a strong wind blew, forcing the couple to cancel their planned trip to the Sahara Desert... We readily believe that the weather was unfavorable for flying. Take a look at the future queen's hairstyle: the wind blew her hair up, making Camilla look like a real rock star.

3. A friendly eagle

In July 2015, Charles III and his wife Camilla visited the Sandringham Flower Show. There, they made friends with an eagle named Zephyr, who became the unofficial mascot of the Army Air Corps of England. For some time, the noble bird sat on the Prince of Wales' hand and played with him, and when it took off, it scared the royals.

4. Tag instead of rugby?

In October 2013, Prince Harry, the son of Charles III and his first wife, Princess Diana, held a rugby training session with the RFU (Rugby Football Union) coaching staff. Of course, during the game, he did not try to restrain his emotions: he often burst out laughing, raised his eyebrows during concentration, and, when failed, he touched his head in disappointment... In one of the shots, it seems that the prince is playing tag with one of the players: he fell on one knee and stretched out his arms to catch her.

5. A photo with a sound

In April 2017, Prince William and Princess Catherine attended the Virgin Money London Marathon (a marathon distance road running competition). At that time, they, like all the fans, were given red pipes. The Duke could not miss this great opportunity and scared his wife with the piercing sound.
