One fan gushed, “This young man looks so much like his maternal grandfather! The resemblance is uncanny! ” Among the treasures Prince Louis collected were a box of Cadbury’s chocolates, Christmas crackers, bouquets, and an array of stuffed toys. With his arms laden with presents, he proudly showed his haul to his siblings and parents, at times struggling to manage the bounty.

Echoing the sentiment, another fan posted, “All I see is Michael Middleton” while another exclaimed, “Prince Louis is the spitting image of Grandad Michael Middleton! ” A further comment read: “Prince Louis is Michael Middleton’s mini-me.”
