Princess Charlotte will be surrounded by her nearest and dearest today as she celebrates her 10th birthday. The only daughter of Prince William, 42, and Princess Kate, 43, is likely to celebrate the special occasion with her parents, along with her siblings Prince George, 11, and Prince Louis, seven.
As she celebrates her special day, the young royal is likely to be spoiled with gifts and affection. While her exact birthday plans are not known, there is no doubt her family will make the day as special as they possibly can for her.
To celebrate Princess Charlotte’s birthday, here are 13 of the best photographs of the young royal…
Prince William and Princess Kate welcomed their only daughter Princess Charlotte into the world 10 years ago at 8.34am on May 2, 2015. Charlotte, whose full name is Charlotte Elizabeth Diana, was born at St Mary’s Hospital in Paddington, London, and weighed 8lb 3oz. At the time of her birth, she was fourth in line to the throne, and is now third in line.
Princess Charlotte has always been seen as one of the more confident royal children, having waved to crowds from a young age. Royal fans over the years have also drawn comparisons between Charlotte and Queen Elizabeth II, both through their looks and their royal waving.
Princess Charlotte is likely to be important for the monarchy when she becomes an adult. This is because she is third-in-line to the throne and will likely be called on to support her dad Prince William when he becomes King, and her brother Prince George when he then takes to the throne.
In September 2019, Princess Charlotte started school at Thomas’s Battersea in London, joining her older brother Prince George. This was when the family lived at Kensington Palace. While the royal children were happy at this school, they only stayed there until 2022 when they then started at Lambrook School in Berkshire. This decision was made as the family decided to relocate from London to Windsor.
While she is a royal, Princess Charlotte has some fairly ordinary hobbies and is believed to like ballet and gymnastics. On a royal engagement, Princess Kate once shared how much her daughter loves dancing. She could be heard saying: “My daughter Charlotte likes dancing, she loves ballet and tap…Keep up the dancing!”
