Prince Harry hid Archie and Lilibet during his visit to Meghan, but his cousins were happy to show off their children for the first time.
Princess Eugenie, 32, and Jack Brooksbank, 36, took their 16-month-old son August to the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee Pageant, where he wore a blue sweater embroidered with a Union flag.
Meanwhile, Princess Beatrice, 33, took her six-year-old stepson Christopher, known as Wolfie, with her. He is the son of Bea’s husband, real estate developer Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi, 38, and his former fiancée, architect Dara Huang, 39.
Bea, who has an eight-month-old daughter named Sienna with Edo, is so close to Wolfie that she wore a necklace with his initial “W.” And he acted as best man at their 2020 wedding at the age of four. This made him the youngest person in history to have played a role in a British royal wedding.

Guinness heir knocked out aged just 51 leaves £30million for family
When the son of former Conservative Cabinet minister Henry Channon died last October aged just 51, it was the latest tragedy to befall his family. However, he has made sure that his widow, Katie, is an extremely wealthy woman.
I can reveal that Channon (pictured), a member of the Guinness dynasty, has left a fortune in excess of £30million.
After his debts were settled, he left £27.53million, which will be entrusted to Katie and his four children, according to estate documents.
Friends said Henry – whose older sister Olivia Channon died of a heroin overdose at Oxford University in 1986 – had been battling an illness for several months before his death.

The Guinness fortune came from US-born Sir Henry “Chips” Channon, who married Lady Honor Guinness and inherited her share of the family fortune
His father, Paul Channon, was a cabinet minister in governments of Edward Heath and Margaret Thatcher before becoming Lord Kelvedon.
In his will, Henry asked to be buried alongside his parents and grandfather, Sir Henry Channon, at Kelvedon Hall near Brentwood, Essex.
The Guinness fortune came from his grandfather, US-born Sir Henry “Chips” Channon, who had married Lady Honor Guinness and inherited her share of the family fortune.
He had two sons from his marriage to first wife Henrietta and two children from his second marriage to Katie. He is also survived by his sister Georgia, 56. Channon’s privileged upbringing was overshadowed by the shock death of his sister Olivia when he was just 16 years old. The 22-year-old history student used alcohol and drugs at a party at Christ Church College and choked on her own vomit.
The Guinness family has been struck by a series of tragedies, leading to claims of a “family curse”. Guinness heiress Tara Browne died in 1966 when his car ran a red light and collided with a van in Kensington. Lady Henrietta Guinness jumping off a bridge in Umbria, Italy, in 1978. Four-year-old Peter Guinness died in a car accident that same year.
In 2004, Robert Hesketh died in his sleep after taking drugs at a country house party and in 2020, Guinness heiress Honor Uloth died aged 19 in a freak swimming pool accident.

they do! Pixie Lott is finally tying the knot
It’s been more than five years since his pop star fiancée, Pixie Lott, walked down the aisle, so model Oliver Cheshire could be forgiven for thumping up as they left Ely Cathedral yesterday as husband and wife.
Cheshire, 34, took the vows in Cambridgeshire in front of friends including actor Idris Elba’s model wife, Sabrina, and the Marquess and Marchioness of Bath.
He had proposed on the steps of St. Paul’s Cathedral in London in November 2016.
Pixie, 31 – a judge on ITV’s The Voice Kids – has explained they postponed the wedding because of the pandemic: “I wanted to wait until we could have the big party.”
The Queen’s Platinum Jubilee bells have stopped ringing, but the tills are still ringing. Buckingham Palace gift shop has informed customers they may have to wait four weeks to receive their orders. “We have seen unprecedented demand for products,” the website reads.
“We are working hard to fulfill existing orders as quickly as possible, but please be aware that new orders may take up to 28 days to process and ship.”
Royal biographer Omid Scobie, known as Prince Harry and Meghan’s cheerleader, has deleted a tweet he posted about the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge’s four-year-old son, Prince Louis. Sharing a photo of Louis playfully sticking his tongue out at Catherine as they watched the Platinum Jubilee Pageant, Scobie commented: “I was wondering why Prince Louis was taken away for a while. Kids stay kids, right?’ When asked why he later deleted the post, he said “some crazy trolls” claimed his comment was “inciting hatred”.
Royal film star Paddington celebrates with the catwalk queen
The Queen wasn’t the only woman to have a close encounter with Paddington Bear over the Platinum Jubilee weekend.
I heard runway queen Kate Moss met the kid’s darling from “darkest Peru” at the pageant.
The supermodel, 48, looked delighted as she greeted Paddington while wearing her patriotic Union Jack jacket. She joined fellow model Naomi Campbell, 52, on the open-top bus for the 1990s Times of Our Lives celebration.
While Paddington is never without his jam, Moss is known to favor harder substances.
