Queen Camilla Wasn't Talking About Prince Louis With 'Handful' Comment
Queen Camilla wasn't talking about that grandson Louis.
During a Wednesday, March 20, visit to the Isle of Man to confer city status on the Borough of Douglas, Camilla, 76, chatted with members of the public including Rachael Hughes and her 15-week-old twins, Louie and Oliver.
I have a Louis grandson quite a handful, the queen quipped, according to Sky News.
While some outlets speculated that Camilla was referring to 5-year-old Prince Louis, who is the youngest son of Prince William and Princess Kate Middleton, Buckingham Palace has since set the record straight.

While Camilla wasn't referring to William and Kate's son on Wednesday, Louis has proven himself to be a cheeky young man over the years. He went viral in June 2022 when he was photographed holding his hands over his ears to block out the sound of flyover planes at the Platinum Jubilee Trooping the Color.
More recently, Louis was caught blowing out sister Charlotte's candle at the annual Westminster Abbey Christmas concert in December 2023.

Charles, who was diagnosed with cancer in February, was later photographed chatting with several former military members while hosting a group of Korean War veterans at Buckingham Palace on Tuesday, March 19.
While the palace has not disclosed what form of cancer Charles is battling, the monarch has opened up about the outpouring of support he's received since revealing his diagnosis.
I've had so many wonderful messages and cards, Charles told U.K. Prime Minister Rishi Sunak last month. It's reduced me to tears most of the time.
