Being a future king doesn't have to be so serious and proper all the time. In fact, the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge's oldest son Prince George has been photographed making the funniest faces and just goofing around many, many times over the years, so it seems that the little royal is not terribly bothered by the weighty crown he will someday wear, at least not just yet.
As the oldest child of Prince William and Kate Middleton continues to delight audiences everywhere, it feels fitting to look back at some of his sweetest moments. Since his birth in 2013, Prince George has captivated the world. Not just because he is third in line for the throne after his father and his grandfather Prince Charles, either. Prince George has been a quietly charming royal from the very beginning. As the older brother of spunky 6-year-old sister Princess Charlotte and silly 3-year-old brother Prince Louis, Prince George tends to give off a more, shall we say, reserved air. Well, some of the time, at any rate.
But every once in a while, Prince George will show his sillier side, and that's when the true royal magic really happens. See for yourself.

Who likes visiting a bilby at the Taronga Zoo in Australia more that Prince George? No one.

Prince George Looking Not Too Sure About Things
Prince George matched his dad, Prince William, for a visit to St. Mary's in London to visit his newborn sister in 2015, but the look on his face was hesitant. It was almost like he knew he was going to have to start sharing his parents soon.
Sisters Are Fun, Right?
Prince George at his sister Princess Charlotte's christening in 2015. Still over it.

Don't let Prince George's fancy coat fool you. When he went to Christmas Day services with the Middleton side of his family in Bucklebury, Berkshire in 2016, he was all about that candy cane.
First Day Of School Nerves
Prince George looked like he had a bad case of nerves on his first day of school in September 2017 at Thomas's Battersea School in London. But his uniform was cute, so that had to help.

Prince George looked like a tiny captain of the sea at the King's Cup Regatta in August 2019 — cool cap and sly grin and everything.

Just Happy To Be Here
It's hard to tell what Prince George was thinking while watching this soccer game in 2019. Perhaps he was skeptical that his team would pull out the win (to be fair, the people sitting in front of him looked pretty concerned, too).

Guys, Stop Embarrassing Me
Even as his parents looked lovingly at one another, Prince George made it clear he was having none of that. "Excuse me, can we just watch the game, please?"
