Not even an excitable horse could steal the show from the new Duke and Duchess of Sussex as they rode in an open carriage down Windsor’s Long Walk.
But the grey horse at the front of the procession did draw attention just like Katy Perry’s Left Shark.
As the grey pranced slightly off-kilter, there was a lot of respect for the rider, who managed to keep the horse in check.
So much respect for the guy riding that horse that is freaking the freak out on the Long Walk #royalwedding

Others declared it to be their spirit animal for wanting its moment in the spotlight.
Not going to lie, that one horse in the front doing the absolute most is stealing the show. Live your best life horse king. #RoyalWedding

The horse was not pulling the carriage of newlyweds Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, but riding a few paces ahead.
It managed to get close to a police officer who was overlooking crowds, but the bobby stayed on their feet.
Ok so did anyone notice the guy almost falling off the his horse into the police man #RoyalWeddingDay

The white horse actually went over to the side barrier and almost knocked over one of the police officers on guard 🙊

When the star of the #RoyalWedding long walk is a horse at the front instead of the bride and the groom 🐎🐎🐎
