On the final day of Queen Elizabeth's Platinum Jubilee celebrations, one of the Queen's youngest great-grandchildren made his first public appearance. August Philip Hawke Brooksbank, the son of Princess Eugenie and Jack Brooksbank, appeared in the royal box with his parents.
The Platinum Jubilee pageant is the last event of the Jubilee weekend, and the majority of the British royal family was in attendance— including baby August. August was joined by his cousin, Christopher Woolf "Woolfie" Mapelli Mozzi, who was also making his first official appearance with the royal family as well, and a bunch of other royal kids—including Cambridge kids Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis, Mia, Lena, and Lucas Tindall, and Savannah and Isla Phillips.
However, August was one of the youngest royal children seen there—and the second-youngest relative of Queen Elizabeth in attendance. (The youngest was his cousin, Lucas Tindall.) August is the Queen's ninth great-grandchild, and he is currently 13th in line for the British throne.
The one-year-old wore an adorable light blue sweater with the Union Jack flag, which seems to be a baby sweater from Maisonette named the "George jumper."

This is the first time August has been photographed in public—all previous photos of him were released on Princess Eugenie's Instagram.
