His great-grandmother, the Queen, looked chuffed at his reaction and was seen chatting to him throughout the event.
The four-day celebrations to mark the Queen's 70 years on the throne kicked off with Trooping the Colour — an annual ceremony in London to mark the official birthday of the British sovereign — on Thursday.
And it was a spectacular start!
Thousands of royal fans packed the Union Jack-lined Mall for Trooping the Colour this morning, in honour of the Queen's Platinum Jubilee.
An impressive 1200 officers and soldiers from the Household Division took part in the Birthday Parade, joined by mounted troops from the 1st Battalion and Irish Guards, 400 musicians and 240 horses on Horse Guards Parade.

The skies over London turned red, white and blue following an impressive display from the Red Arrows, with 71 aircraft taking flight.
The Queen was also joined by senior royals Prince Charles, Prince William and Kate Middleton to watch the spectacular British Royal Air Force fly-past.

Prince Andrew, Prince Harry and Meghan were noticeably absent from the event, after Her Majesty limited the line-up to working royals only.
However, the Sussexes were given prime seats to watch the landmark event, after they arrived from the US on Saturday.
Meanwhile, Prince Andrew was denied a seat due to his sexual allegations.
