The days are long but the years are short, and Princess Charlotte Elizabeth Diana Cambridge is most certainly proof of that!



Charlotte turns four!

Today is Princess Charlotte’s fourth birthday and the adorable preschooler is being celebrated on the royal Instagram account, with a series of three photos being shared a short while ago. 

The images were taken by Charlotte’s mum Duchess Kate and show the wee gal larking about outdoors wearing a cardigan, tights and Amaia tartan dress, as well as a more summery one where she’s posing in a traditional smocked frock and sneakers. Her dress is from Trotters as are her navy canvas shoes

“Thank you for the lovely messages for Princess Charlotte’s fourth birthday!” a Kensington Palace rep posted on Instagram.

“The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge are very pleased to share three new photographs of Princess Charlotte ahead of her fourth birthday. The photographs were taken in April by The Duchess at Kensington Palace and at their home in Norfolk.”

Royal doppelgänger?

Of course, royal watchers were thrilled to have some new photos of Charlotte to enjoy, and immediately began poring over them and noting some familiar features.

“Someone looks just like her daddy!” one commenter posted.

“Spitting image of William,” another person agreed.

“She looks like Queen Elizabeth,” a royal fan countered.

“Wow she has her granny’s eyes,” someone else chimed in.

A little princess

Her Royal Highness Princess Charlotte of Cambridge is fourth in line to the throne, after her brother Prince George and ahead of Prince Louis.

Charlotte was born at the Lindo Wing of London’s St Mary’s Hospital, with several landmarks – like the London Eye and the Tower Bridge – illuminated in pink after her birth was announced.

The preschooler attends Willcocks Nursery School and is expected to move on to St Thomas’s Battersea school – which Prince George attends – in September of this year.

Another birth day announcement is imminent

Everyone with a remote interest in the royal family is on tenterhooks when any updates are posted to the royal accounts, as we await news about the arrival of Meghan and Harry’s baby.

It’s suggested that the little one has already arrived – possibly over Easter – as both Kate and William and the Queen visited Meg and Harry’s home at Frogmore Cottage then.

It’s also just been announced that Harry will head off on an overseas engagement next week, with many speculating that he would not be tripping off if Meghan had not delivered the newest royal baby and found her new mama feet.

“The Duke of Sussex will visit The Netherlands on Wednesday 8th and Thursday 9th May 2019. While in The Netherlands, The Duke will undertake an official engagement in Amsterdam,” an official statement announced, news.com.au reports. “His Royal Highness will then travel to The Hague to officially launch the one year countdown to the Invictus Games The Hague 2020.”

Watch this space because an announcement is surely imminent?!

And happy birthday Princess Charlotte!
