Queen Elizabeth's great-granddaughter Savannah Phillips wanted her cousin George to keep it cool, so she promptly placed her right hand right over the future king’s mouth when he started to giggle.

Savannah knew the cameras were on her, too, as she flashed a sly smile and deadpanned those watching.
