Prince Louis stole the show … again.

The little royal, who turned 5 in April, delighted the crowds at Trooping the Colour when he gave a cheeky salute on the Buckingham Palace balcony.

He was also seen throwing his fists into the air and seemingly pretending to ride a motorcycle, as his mother, Princess Kate, looked on amused.

Earlier, Louis, along with his siblings, Prince George, 9, and Princess Charlotte, 8, rode in a carriage together.

It was the second time they had ridden in a carriage for the ceremony, having made their debut last year.

At one point, Louis held his nose, reportedly because he’d caught a whiff of horse excrement.

The children also enjoyed watching an impressive 70 aircraft zoom past for the ceremony that marks the military’s tribute to the monarch.

It’s not the first time the youngest child of the Prince and Princess of Wales has acted exuberantly on the balcony.

Last year, he pulled a face of animated looks at the late Queen Elizabeth’s jubilee celebrations.

During Trooping the Colour Saturday, the siblings sat across from their mom, Princess Kate, and Queen Camilla in the carriage.

The designer choice could have been a nod to Prince William’s environmental Earthshot Prize, which will hold its new awards ceremony in Singapore this November.

Prince William, who turns 41 on Wednesday, did not ride in a carriage. Instead, he was on horseback as Colonel of the Welsh Guards, which this year will be the regiment whose color — or flag — will be presented to the King.

King Charles, 74, also rode on horseback in the parade and was joined by the royal colonels, including his brother Prince Edward, Duke of Edinburgh, and Prince William.

The balcony scene featured far fewer royals than in the past — keeping with the King’s desire to have a slimmed-down monarchy.

Joining the King was his sister, Princess Anne, and her husband, Vice Admiral Timothy Laurence, and Prince Edward’s wife, Sophie, Duchess of Edinburgh.

Missing, of course, was King Charles’ younger son, Prince Harry, his wife, Meghan Markle, and their children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet.
