THIS is the adorable moment Prince George was hushed by his young royal cousin as the national anthem was playing during the Trooping the Colour ceremony today.

Savannah Phillips, daughter of Princess Anne's son Peter, kept Prince George in check as they joined the Royals on the Buckingham Palace balcony.

The cute pair stood in front of Prince William, who seemed to give a disapproving look, as the National Anthem was played shortly after the RAF's stunning display.

Savannah waved her arms pretending to conduct the Household Division band as the Queen's official birthday celebrations came to a remarkable close.

Prince George was not the only one who became excited during the display, as Princess Charlotte clapped and cheered during the flypast - but she later appeared to become tearful.

At one point Kate Middleton who looked elegant in her blue dress, crouched beside her in a bid to calm down the young princess.

Stands lining Horse Guards were filled with the wives, girlfriends and parents of the servicemen who when not performing ceremonial duties are fighting soldiers.
