A short video clip of Prince George during King Charles III’s coronation went viral on social media and caught the attention of thousands of users.
In the images, Prince William’s eldest son can be seen walking determinedly alongside aide Rob Dixon, in what appears to be a moment prior to one of the day’s events.
Dressed in a red tunic as part of his role as a pageboy, George moves confidently through the bustle, just behind the historic golden carriage that awaited him in front of Westminster Abbey.
Although the event was watched by millions of people around the world, this more intimate moment generated a wave of comments when it was posted with the message “Prince George’s aura.”
The video garnered more than 231,000 views and sparked enthusiastic reactions from royal fans, who praised the young heir’s demeanor.
Some called him “The future king,” while others considered the enthusiasm sparked by the clip to be exaggerated.
George shared his role as pageboy with other children close to the royal family, accompanying the monarch during the lengthy ceremony.
His father, Prince William, also played a prominent role in paying tribute to Charles III by kneeling before him and swearing allegiance in a gesture laden with symbolism.
Although most comments celebrated George’s attitude, there were those who were skeptical about the commotion: “He’s just walking, it’s ridiculous honestly,” wrote one user.
