Did you know that 7-year-old Princess Charlotte has been described as having the same shy
yet fun personality as her grandmother, Princess Diana?
So, was it that same "fun" personality that earned the young princess so much attention
during the Queen's Jubilee Celebration?
Keep watching to find out.
Princess Charlotte, the 7-year-old daughter of Prince William and Kate Middleton, is fourth
in line for the throne.
As such, she's pretty much been famous since she was born.
Her first public appearance on the famous Buckingham Palace balcony was in her mother's
arms shortly after her first birthday to watch the Trooping the Colour parade.
But this year, she got to be a part of the parade.
Charlotte and her siblings were front and center at several events for the queen's Platinum
Jubilee celebration.
It started when she and her brothers had their first ride in a royal carriage for the Trooping the Colour.
The three all sat on one side of the carriage with Louis in the middle, and on the other
side were their mother and Camilla Parker-Bowles.
They waved at the crowds lining the streets.
At one point, however, Charlotte seemed to think her little brother's waving was just
too much, so she reached out to lower his waving hand to his lap.
Louis wasn't alone in getting a Charlotte check; she also had a nudge for her big brother
at their final Jubilee appearance.
Queen Elizabeth, Prince Charles, Camilla Parker-Bowles, Prince William, Kate Middleton, and the three
Cambridge kids were back on the Buckingham Palace balcony for the wrap up of the Platinum
Jubilee celebrations.
While the national anthem played, Princess Charlotte noticed that her big brother Prince
George was resting his hand on the balcony.
In the way only a middle child could, she gave him a nudge, in response to which he
dropped his hand back down to his side and straightened up.
She definitely seems to be the sibling that keeps her brothers in line.
That wasn't the only time the older Cambridge siblings stole the show at the Platinum Jubilee.
The two shared another sweet moment when the anthem ended and a smoke cannon went off.
The sudden sound seemed to surprise Charlotte.
George looked at his sister and, according to Hello!
Magazine, said, "That made you jump."
She agreed and was seen saying, "That made me jump!"
Also on Sunday Charlotte gave some sisterly attention to her little brother.
While Twitter may have deemed Louis a fan favorite, Charlotte was not as amused by her
sibling's antics during the Platinum Pageant.
When Louis put his fist in his mouth, Charlotte moved his hand and gave him a verbal warning.
However, Louis ignored his sister's commentary.
It took the combined efforts of his mother and grandfather to keep him calm during the
lengthy event, much to the delight of royal watchers.
"I loved every moment."
While the three Cambridge children may display typical childlike behavior, unlike most kids
their age, they are also receiving instruction for their royal roles.
Myka Meier, an expert in royal etiquette, told Cosmopolitan,
"It would probably begin with simple training like how to shake hands and curtsy around
the age of two."
According to Meier, Kate Middleton would likely be the person to give her children their earliest instruction.
Back in 2019, Princess Charlotte and Prince George impressed observers at a Christmas service.
The then-four-year-old Charlotte handled the event with aplomb.
One impressed royal fan told the Express,
"Her manners were outstanding — but she's cheeky, she wasn't at all scared."
Charlotte has also demonstrated that she's learned a lot by watching her other royal
family members in action, especially her great-grandmother.
During the final balcony appearance of the four-day Platinum Jubilee events, Charlotte
mirrored the queen's iconic greeting style.
The young princess emulated the monarch as the two waved simultaneously at the cheering audience.
Part of the young Cambridges' royal education also includes on-the-job training.
During Saturday's Jubilee festivities, Prince George and Princess Charlotte accompanied
Prince William and Kate to Wales.
This time it was Kate Middleton's turn to offer Charlotte a gentle correction during
the meet and greet.
Body language expert Judi James told the Daily Mail:
"Kate was seen to nudge Charlotte to step forward to shake hands after she jumped in
too quickly at first, moving up before her brother and father had done their greetings."
Previously, James told the Express how much Charlotte's demeanor resembled her late grandmother,
Princess Diana.
James told the outlet:
"Like Diana she gives the initial impression of shyness but beneath that appears to be
an outgoing, fun personality."
